概要

The mode of action of enduracidin was studied from the growth curves of Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus exposed to the antibiotic.Enduracidin was added to cultures at the same time as, and 3 hours after, the inoculation of bacteria. In both cases, there was a significant decrease in value of viable bacterial count and optical density of these cultures, as compared with the control culture to which the antibiotic had not been added. Enduracidin exerted, however, neither bactericidal nor bacteriolytic action upon the stationary phase of growth.The ability of enduracidin to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus was not affected by the addition of several amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, vitamins, or cations to the medium.
