Abstract
The organisms employed in testing the antibiotic actions of royal jelly were 45 species and 47 strains of bacteria, 23 species and 23 strains of lactic acid bacteria, 10 species and 11 strains of actinomycetes, 44 species and 47 strains of yeast, and 24 species and 24 strains of molds. The royal jelly has antibiotic actions against Trichophyton mentagrophytes and also against various actinomycetes but the growths of lactic acid bacteria and same species of aerobic bacteria were promoted by the royal jelly.
