Hyaluronidase in Clinical Isolates of Propionibacterium acnes

Figure 5

Hyaluronidase production by Propionibacterium acnes under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Two hyaluronidase-producing isolates of P. acnes were incubated under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Hyaluronidase production was measured by light transmission at OD₅₄₀. Hyaluronidase was detected with incubation under anaerobic but not aerobic conditions.
