    Nontoxigenic derivatives of a toxigenic strain of Clostridium tetani were isolated gy treatment with acridine orange, N-methyl-N'-nitro-soguanidine, rifampicin or ultraviolet light. The frequency of appearance fo non-toxigenic derivatives on these treatments was 0.8 to 3.2 per cent. The nontoxigenic derivatives peoduced all the same extracellular antigenic and protein components as the toxigenic parent strain, except the toxin and materials cross-reacting with the toxin. The nontoxigenic strains, like the toxigenic parent strain, were lyzed by trratment with mitomycin C. Bacteriophage was detected in the lysates of all the nontoxigenic derivatives produced with mitomycin C, and this bacteriophage was morphologically indistinguishable from that obtained from the toxigenic parent strain. The genetic factor controlling tetanus toxin production is discussed.
