Bacteriolysis by Agaricus bisporus [PDF]
Summary: Agaricus bisporus, the cultivated mushroom, was able to mineralize dead 14C-labelled Bacillus subtilis and utilize the cellular components as sole source of carbon and nitrogen for growth. Consistently higher levels of bacteriolytic activity were obtained when A. bisporus was grown on lower concentrations of bacteria, 1·5 mg ml−1 as opposed to

Induction of Bacteriolysis by Cysteamine and Its Derivatives [PDF]
Cysteamine and certain closely related derivatives induced lysis in a majority of 28 strains of Bacillus; cultures of all other genera tested were resistant. Forty-three additional sulphur and/or nitrogen containing compounds were unable to induce lysis. Optimum conditions for cysteamine activity included exposure of metabolizing post-log.
