A stable L‐form of Aeromonas salmonicida , which resulted form induction with benzylpenicillin, contained more of an outer membrane protein, with an estimated molecular wight of 40 kDza but less of 47.9 and 38 kDa proteins, than did parental walled cells. In addition from Western blots, two protein bands reacted strongly with a polyclonal antiserum. The antiserum did not react demonstrably with teh band detect in the L‐forms on the gels.
