Specific growth rates, doubling times, and temperature characteristics were determined for 12 cultures of 9 species of Bacillus that had been isolated from milk and found able to grow at low temperatures. Cultures of Group A, psychrophilic strains of B. subtilis, B. circulans~ and B. coagulans, grew at 0 1 C and had growth characteristics similar to those reported for psychrophilic species of Pseudomouas. Eight cultures of Group B had minimal growth temperatures of 5 to 7 C and other growth characteristics between those reported for psychrophilic species of Pseudomonas and those reported for mesophilic bacteria.
