[The antibiotic properties of macrocyclic trichothecene mycotoxins]

Some trichotecenic mycotoxins (verrucarine A, roridines A and H, T-2-toxin) have been studied for their antibiotic effect on a wide spectrum of the yeast cultures (761 strains). The studied substances differ both in their activity and the action character. The yeast strains promising for development of microbiological methods of indication and detoxification of mycotoxins have been revealed.
