  • Title: [Action of acridine dyes on antibiotic, pigment and aerial mycelium formation in streptomycete producers of multicomponent antibiotics].

    Abstract:
    The ability of 5 streptomycetous species synthesizing multicomponent antibiotic to produce the antibiotic and water-soluble pigment and to form the aerial mycelium in the presence of acridine dyes was studied. It was found that the character of the produced complex changed, when acridine dyes were added to the medium under conditions not affecting the culture growth and the temperature was elevated. Colonies deficient with respect to formation of the aerial mycelium and with changed pigment and antibiotic production were detected in the monospore cultures of the streptomycetes treated with acridine dyes, when the spore survival was equal to 100 percent, the frequency of the colonies being about 40 per cent.
