title: Effect of magnetic field on the biosynthesis of neomycin by Streptomyces marinensis.
abstract: The effect of 30, 70, 90, 100, 110 and 150 gauss permanent magnetic field strength on the growth and neomycin titre of Streptomyces marinensis was studied. Maximum growth was attained in 120 h at all magnetic strengths. Gradual increase in neomycin titre was observed with increase of magnetic field strength up to 110 gauss.
