Staphylococcal skin isolates belonging to phage type 71 were found to produce a bactericidal substance against some streptococci, pneumococci, and corynebacteria. Fifteen strains of group A streptococci belonging to 13 different M types, group C streptococci, and group D streptococci were uniformly inhibited on solid media and in broth by membrane-filtered supernatant fluids of the staphylococcal broth cultures. Inhibition of group G streptococci and other staphyloccoci was variable, and no inhibition of group B streptococci or of a variety of gram-negative rods was demonstrable. A quantitative variation observed to exist among susceptible organisms was a function of the inoculum size of the inhibited strains. The bactericidal substance could be detected best from 24 to 48 hr after inoculation of the staphylococci in tryptic soy broth or in a dialysate of tryptic soy broth. Little or no bactericidal activity was noted when the organisms were grown in several other liquid media. The bactericidal substance was nondialyzable and could be precipitated with ammonium sulfate. It was heat-stable and its activity was not altered within ap H range of 4.0 to 8.5. Pronase and three times crystallized trypsin totally abolished its activity. The concentrated ammonium sulfate precipitate could be fractionated on a Sephadex G-100 column into several peaks, with the bactericidal activity localized to a single peak.
