Application Notes

Germicidin A is a pyranone isolated from Streptomyces sp. in 1993. Germicidin A is an extremely potent autoregulator of the sporulation of the producing strain and spores of closely related species. Inhibition is detected at 0.1 ng/ml and is orders of magnitude more potent than a diverse range of antibiotics.
