Abstract
The antibacterial activity of lincomycin and pristinamycin was compared with that of erythromycin. fa spite of chemical differences, lincomycin has an antibacterial activity similar to that of the macrolides, including partial cross-resistance. Pristinamycin has an activity fa conformity with its chemical similarity to ostreogrycin.Keywords
