Abstract
The production of antibacterial substances under different nutritive c onditions has been studied in members of the Pseudonocardiaceae family . The results show that media with low nitrogen content stimulate the production of antibacterial substances in the genera Amycolatopsis, Sa ccharomonospora and Saccharopolyspora, while strains from the genus Ps eudonocardia produce these metabolites in media with moderate or high nitrogen content.
