Abstract
Good yields of pyocin are obtained when Pseudomonas aeruginosa is grown in Trypticase soy broth (without glucose) (BBL) plus 1% potassium nitrate. As a result, pyocin production for routine epidemiological typing can be done in screw-cap tubes, without mechanical agitation or mitomycin C induction.
