Bacteriolytic effect of teicoplanin.

Journal of general microbiology - 1 Apr 1991

Chmara H, Ripa S, Mignini F, Borowski E

Abstract excerpt

The glycopeptide antibiotic teicoplanin belongs to the same group as vancomycin and ristocetin and is a valuable tool for studying the autolytic system of sensitive Gram-positive bacteria. Teicoplanin, at a concentration of 1 microgram ml-1, caused rapid lysis of exponential phase cells of Streptococcus faecalis. Bacillus spp. were most sensitive to the antibiotic; effective lysis occurred at 0.1 microgram...
