A comparative study has revealed the identity of the amino acid composition of the peptide part of peptidoglycans obtained from the intact cells (the first method) and of the amino acid composition of peptidoglycans isolated from cell walls (the second method). This evidences for the possibility of using the first method when determining types of peptidoglycans for diagnosis of the coryneform bacteria genera.
