The ability of representatives of psychrotolerant micromycetes to produce antimicrobial compounds was studied. A promising producer of antibiotics, Penicillium vulpinum KPB F-290, was selected (from 98 cultures) as a result of the screening. The producer was active against opportunistic fungi and bacteria. The isolated active fractions can be attributed to the group of antimicrobial compounds, including ß-lactam antibiotics and peptides.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
