Tzagoloff, Helen (Rutgers, The State University, New Brunswick, N.J.)and W. W. Umbreit . Influence of streptomycin on nucleotide excretion inEscherichia coli . J. Bacteriol.85: 49–52. 1963.—The action of streptomycin in causing nucleotide excretion is not the cause of the killing effect of streptomycin, because, in certain strains, streptomycin may kill the cells without evidence of nucleotide excretion. In readily excreting strains, most of the cells are killed before nucleotide excretion is evident.
