In Vitro Antibiotic Sensitivity of Oral Microorganisms to Actinobolin

Abstract
Actinobolin was tested by a paper disk-agar diffusion method for inhibitory activity against cariogenic streptococcal strains, mixed microbial cultures, bacteria, and yeasts. The cariogenic streptococci and the mixed cultures were highly sensitive to inhibition by actinobolin, which suggests that this antibiotic may be useful as a cariostatic agent.
