    Notes: Summary Problems with present bioactive microbial product screening techniques include low sensitivity and insufficient discrimination capabilities. These problems are addressed by our new immobilized-resin microbiological assay. This technique concentrates bioactive samples on macroporous polymeric resins that are immobilized in hydrogel beads. These beads are then subjected to elution in the wells of an agar diffusion microbiological assay medium. With a strong base anion exchanger, the sensitivity to ampicillin of the β-lactam-supersensitiveEscherichia coli mutant ESS-22-31 was increased 10-fold. Similar increases in sensitivity were obtained in the detection of streptomycin using a weak acid cation exchanger withBacillus subtilis and for cycloheximide by a neutral resin andSaccharomyces cerevisiae NRRL-Y-139. A judicious choice of resin type and eluent permitted a selective sensitivity increase based on the charge or hydrophobic nature of the desired product. This selectivity imparts a discrimination capability to the technique.

    Notes: A polymeric-resin-based microbiological assay is shown to yield results consistent with classical inhibition zone theory. This novel assay is applicable to cycloheximide, an antifungal antibiotic, at concentrations below 1.0 μg/mL and up to 800 μg/mL. Addition of ethanol to the cut-out wells of the assay plate helps to release the antibiotic and drastically increases the inhibition zone size. The antibiotic concentrations of both two component and multicomponent systems can be determined using this method. The use of polymeric-resin beads to monitor antibiotic concentrations is shown to be an effective technique for fermentation monitoring.
