摘要
Fifty bacterial strains isolated from dairy product, skin and blood from cancer and kidney failure dialysis patients were identified to 22 species and the following genera： Brevibacterium, Corynebacterium, Arthrobacter, Actinomyces, Exiguobacterium, Kocuria, Micrococcus, Rothia, Rhodococcus and classified numerically using a set of 52 phenetic characteristics, using simple matching coefficient （Ssm） and clustering method of unweighted average linkage between groups by SPSS program. They were also grouped to 7 main clusters and 29 sub-clusters in the hierarchical tree. Twelve isolates of the different species from the genera Brevibacterium, Arthrobacter, Corynebacterium, Kocuria, Rhodococcus, Rothia were selected from the taxonomic clusters and probed for lin gene by peR. One species Kocuria rhizophila which inhibited most of the test organism did not have lin gene in the chromosome while the species Corynebacterium glucuronolyticum, Arthrobacter comminsii, Arthrobacter oxydans have the lin gene. Our results establish a wide distribution of the structural gene encoding this Iinocin M 18 within coryneform bacteria and also in the genus Kocuria.
