Abstract
A bacteriolytic enzyme complex is obtained from a bacterial culture of Bacillus pabuli strains, e.g. , isolates 350-2 (NRRL B-18446) and 391-1 (NRRL B-18447). This bacteriolytic enzyme complex is useful as an antibacterial agent against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The enzyme complex may be produced by cultivating the B. pabuli microorganisms in an aqueous medium containing cornsteep liquor, after which the lyric enzyme complex can be recovered from the fermentation broth.
