1. The phenol solutions used as a standard in the bacteriological testing of disinfectants should be made from pure freshly distilled phenol.
2. The actual quantity of phenol, cresylic acid and water present in commercial carbolic acids and in carbolic powders may be estimated by extracting the oils and testing their germicidal power.
3. The comparative germicidal value of disinfectant powders may be estimated by keeping the powder and organism in contact by mechanical means during the whole period of the experiment.
