A mould was isolated in this laboratory by Dr. D. G. Denton in 1947 which was found to produce in culture a potent toxin neutralizing substance. The mould was isolated as a contaminant from a Lowenstein's slope which had been inoculated with sputum tor the bacteriological diagnosis of tuberculosis. It was shown that the active toxin neutralizing principle was secreted into the medium during the growth of the mould in fluid cultures and that it may be demonstrated in mycelium free culture filtrates.
