Abstract:
Most chlortetracycline (CTC) which was produced in fermentation process or was added into solution diffused into mycelium of Streptomyces aureofacins while seldom did into other microorganism cells. According to results of mycelium disruption of S. aureofaciens, CTC did not dissolve in cytoplasm of S. aureofaciens but was absorbed by intracellular components. Variation of pH had obvious effects on CTC absorption of S. aureofaciens cells, and more than 95% CTC was absorbed by mycelium at physiological conditions while all dissolved in solution when of pH value is lower than 1.4. From body solutions into cell, CTC transport was passive diffusion. Special absorption of CTC in mycelium of S. aureofaciens may be one important factor that S. aureofaciens had such potent resistance to CTC.
