Popis: Streptomyces griseus produced a certain kind of flocculating substance(s). The flocculating substance(s) could aggregate suspended kaolin particles in solution to form small floes and enables it to sediment those particles. The production of flocculating substance(s) by S. griseus was not parallel to the cell growth and a large number of flocculating substance(s) was released into the culture broth in the death phase. The flocculating substance(s) produced by S. griseus acted under acidic conditions and the maximum activity was observed at pH 4.
