title: [Effect of the cultivation temperature on gramicidin S biosynthesis under conditions of producer growth limitation by oxygen].
abstract: The gramicidin S-producing organisms Bacillus brevis was grown under submerged conditions in fermenters at a temperature of 32 degrees C which is the lower limit of the temperature ranges providing the culture growth. The culture was also grown under the optimal temperature conditions, i.e. 40 degrees C. At the lower temperature the biomass synthesis at the early stage of the culture development was decreased, the intensity of the cell respiration was low and solubility of oxygen in the liquid was increased. Under such conditions the decrease in the levels of dissolved oxygen in the medium was less pronounced than that under the control conditions. At the lower temperature limitation of the culture growth by the deficit of dissolved oxygen lowered and the period of the antibiotic synthesis increased which brought about a rise of the gramicidin S yield by 30-40 per cent.
