Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To develop solid-state fermentation system (SSF) for hyper production of tylosin from a mutant gamma-1 of Streptomyces fradiae NRRL-2702 and its parent strain. METHODS AND RESULTS: Various agro-industrial wastes were screened to study their effect on tylosin production in SSF. Wheat bran as solid substrate gave the highest production of 2500 microg of tylosin g(-1) substrate by mutant gamma-1 against parent...
