Penicillinase from Micrococci Isolated from Soft Cheeses. II. Formation of ß-Lactamase

ABSTRACT

Penicillinases formed by micrococci isolated from soft cheeses were examined for ß-lactamase and penicillin amidase activities. Results of techniques involving the reaction of products formed with iodine, hydroxylamine, and phenylacetylchloride indicate the presence of ß-lactamase in purified enzyme preparations. These findings were supported by data obtained with infrared spectroscopy and paper chromatography. Penicilloic acid appears to be the only product formed during the reaction. Added 6-amino penicillanic acid was not hydrolyzed.
