Abstract: Abstract The subject of this paper are some constructions of Steiner designs with blocks of two sizes that differ by one. The study of such designs is motivated by a combinatorial lower bound on the minimum number of individual tests at the second stage of a 2-stage disjunctive testing algorithm.
