The rate of putrefaction of saliva, under the influence of 17 organisms isolated from the mouth and under varying conditions, was studied. It was found that practically all of the organisms studied may play some rôle in the putrefaction of salivary proteins. It is further evident that under the conditions of the experiment, no single type of organism is capable of producing putrefaction as rapidly as the mixtures that are normally present in the mouth.
