Popis:	A sensitive dye-binding assay was employed to study the extracellular hyaluronidase produced by three penicillin-sensitive strains of group A streptococci belonging to M types 4, 24 and 28. Enzyme was produced by all strains at appreciable levels. Subminimal inhibitory concentrations of penicillin in growing cultures increased enzyme production by M types 4 and 24 strains. Growth of the M type 28 R strain with added antibiotic was accompanied by a reduced production of hyaluronidase.
