N2  - Logarithmic growth rates and apparent lag periods of Lb. plantarum, Lb. brevi8, and P. cere'Visiae are relatively resistant to lowering of the water activity of the growth medium. At 30°C, limiting water activity values for growth of these sp~cies have been found to be 0·920-0· 930, 0'945-0·950, and 0·930-0·940, respectively. No appreciable interaction of water activity and temperature, in relation to growth of these bacteria, could be demonstrated.
