A lytic system is described in S. faecalis zymogenes (Group D) which begins to show influid media in exponential phase and attains highest activity before stationary phase. The system disruptslong chains into shorter aggregates by lysing the cocci distributed randomly in the chains. Keywords: Lytic factor, chain disruption, growth curve, exponential phase, optical density.
