[The quantitative composition of lactoflora and a method for its determination]

A newly developed method for the determination of the quantitative composition of lactoflora is described. According to this method, the material under study is subcultured, after its primary inoculation into solid selective medium M P C - 4, placed into fructose- and sorbitol-containing media by the replica method. The characterization of fecal lactoflora of young healthy persons, made with the use of the above-mentioned new method, is presented.
