VANCOMYCIN PRODUCING MICROORGANISM

摘要

A vancomycin resistant mutant strain for producing vancomycin is claimed and has been selected by UV treatment of Nocardia orientalis (ATCC 19795). The vancomycin was produced by culture of the mutant strain (KFCC 10745) on a nutrient medium containing starch, potato protein, soy bean powder, sodium chloride at 30-35 deg.C, pH 7.8-8.0.
