Effect of various inhibitors on the multiplication of BLE bacteriophage in Bacillus licheniformis

A total of 40 substances were tested for their inhibitory effect on the multiplication of a bacteriophage in a growing culture of Bacillus licheniformis and their influence on bacitracin production. Acriflavine was the only substance which, at a concentration of 3 microgram ml-1, completely suppress...

Zusammenfassung:	A total of 40 substances were tested for their inhibitory effect on the multiplication of a bacteriophage in a growing culture of Bacillus licheniformis and their influence on bacitracin production. Acriflavine was the only substance which, at a concentration of 3 microgram ml-1, completely suppressed phage multiplication while having no effect on the growth of Bacillus licheniformis and on the production of the antibiotic.
