title: Inhibitory spectrum of a bacteriocinlike substance (mutacin) produced by some strains of Streptococcus mutans.
abstract: Streptococcus mutans strains were surveyed to determine their lysogenicity. Growth inhibition of the indicator strains around the inoculum of stab culture of some S mutans strains was demonstrated. Many gram-positive bacteria, including mycobacteria and streptomycetes, were sensitive to the antibacterial activity.
