Eleven of 16 strains of streptococci (alpha, beta and gamma hemolytic) were inhibited by concentrations ranging from 0.2 to 12.5 microgm. per milliliter.

Third, these principles held true with several potential pathogenic or disease-causing bacteria, such as Group B streptococcus (GBS). GBS is a Gram-positive alpha-hemolytic bacterium that can cause ...
