Abstract: By lab. fermentation the production of chlortetracycline (I) was increased maximally by 10% and 18%, if corn-steep liquor (II) and molasses (III) were fermented completely by the inoculation of Lactobacillus dellbriickii S-54. If the ratio of II to III was 2:5 the production of I was increased from 1200 γ/ml. to 1600-1700 γ/ml.
