Abstract
The growth-promoting action of C. albicans cells on tubercle bacilli is due, in all probability, to a polysaccharide fraction which has been isolated from yeast cells. A technique for isolating this fraction, some of its chemical characteristics, and its action on tubercle bacilli have been described.
