Production of antimicrobials by Bacillus subtilis MIR 15.
We report the isolation and characterization of a strain of Bacillus, designed MIR 15, which appears to produce and excrete antimicrobials active against Gram-negative bacteria, but not against fungi. B. subtilis MIR 15 varied its antimicrobial profiles and production with the cultivation temperature.
