Abstract
A method of preparing nisin by extraction with solvents from broth culture of the special strain of Streptococcus lactis is described. The nisin was purified by salting out, solvent extraction and fractional precipitation with acetone. The yield of almost pure antibiotic was about 1 g from each 80 1 of broth.Keywords
