PRODUCTION OF OXYTETRACYCLINE BY ISOLATED WILD TYPE IRANIAN STREPTOMYCES RIMOSUS
Authors
Abstract:
Production of oxytetracycline by an isolated strain of Streptomyces rimosus from Iranian soil was investigated using a special fermentation medium. A comparative study was performed with standard strain PTCC 1144 using the following parameters optimum growth conditions with respect to time, pH, and different amounts of corn steep liquor. Surprisingly, the production yield of the wild strain was 20% more than the standard strain.

full textGenetics of Streptomyces rimosus, the oxytetracycline producer.
From a genetic standpoint, Streptomyces rimosus is arguably the best-characterized industrial streptomycete as the producer of oxytetracycline and other tetracycline antibiotics. Although resistance to these antibiotics has reduced their clinical use in recent years, tetracyclines have an increasing role in the treatment of emerging infections and noninfective diseases. Procedures for in vivo a...
full textInfluence of Inorganic Phosphorus on Oxytetracycline Formation by Streptomyces Rimosus.
Production of oxytetracycline by Streptomyces rimosus in several chemically defined media containing graded concentrations of inorganic phosphorus was studied in shake flasks. Although high levels of inorganic phosphate have been reported to inhibit oxytetracycline formation, this study indicated that composition of the medium is an important factor in determining whether antibiotic production ...
full textOxytetracycline Formation by Streptomyces rimosus in Chemically Defined Media.
Details in the fermentation of oxytetracycline in a synthetic medium with Streptomyces rimosus have been presented. In these studies, an organic nitrogen source was shown to be essential for the production of significant amounts of antibiotic activity. Of the amino acids tested, aspartic acid, proline, threonine, valine, and beta-alanine were utilized well for both growth and antibiotic product...
full textUse of date products in production of oxytetracycline by Streptomyces rimosus.
Oxytetracycline, one of the tetracycline family, is a broadspectrum antibiotic produced by different species of Streptenryces, namely Streptomyees rimosus, Streptonryces capuensis, Streptomyces henetus, and Struptomyces platensis (Finlay et al,i)), The antibiotic is active on Gram-pesitive and negative bacteria, spirochetes, rickettsiae, nd some viruses, Many workers2"i4) have studied factors a...
full textNitrosoguanidine Mutagenesis and Genome Shuffling Enhanced the Oxytetracycline Production of Streptomyces rimosus
This research is aimed to improve the oxytetracycline production from Streptomyces rimosus. Five relatively high oxytetracycline yielding strains were obtained by nitrosoguanidine mutation of the protoplast of initial oxytetracycline producing strain Streptomyces rimosus JH and then subjected to genome shuffling as parental strains. The protoplasts of the five parental strains were prepared and...
