_B. Streptococci._

19. Pick off streptococcus colonies and subcultivate upon nutrient agar
exactly as directed in steps 14, 15 and 16.

20. Differentiate the streptococci isolated into members of the
saprophytic group of short-chained cocci, or members of the parasitic
(pathogenic) group of long-chained cocci, by means of their cultural
characters, and record their numerical frequency in the manner indicated
for the members of the coli-typhoid group.
