In studies on the nutritional requirements of Bacillus subtilis during mycobacillin formation in complex media, it was observed that the addition of a mixture of salts (KH2PO4, MgSO4, FeSO4, and MInSO4) to a casein hydrolyzateglucose medium greatly enhanced mycobacillin formation (AIajumdar and Bose, 1959). Reports by a number of workers (Jansen and Hirschman, 1944; Hendlin, 1949) indicate that...

Antimicrobial peptides exhibit high levels of antimicrobial activity against a broad range of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. Compared with bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria, antimicrobial peptides from the genus Bacillus have been relatively less recognized despite their broad antimicrobial spectra. These peptides can be classified into two different groups based on whether...
