18 samples of molasses were examined and there were found 6100 - 54 000 microorganisms in 1 g of molasses. On yeast agar with added saccharose (4 %)  2500 - 38 000 microbes were found in 1 g of molasses. In the microbiological analysis of 8 samples of yeast molasses from the period 1955 - 56 an elective medium was used for the isolation of acidiferous bacteria. The proof of denitrification bacteria in molasses by means of agglomeration test and colorific reaction with Griess reagent.(In Czech, English summary only)
