Question 2. You have isolated a bacterium that produces a bacteriocin against Salmonella. The bacteria grow well in Medium 1 but don't produce bacteriocin. Testing one component at a time, you determine that iron interferes with bacteriocin production. When you try Medium 1 without iron, the bacteria don't grow. Bacteriocin production is best in Medium 2. Design a procedure to maximize the biomass and the yield of the bacteriocin.
Question 3. What are bacteriocins? Question 4. How might a bacteriocin against Salmonella be used? |
