Abstract
The decarboxylase activity of Glutamic acid as well as α-Ketoglutaric acid which as a result of training in the medium having viomycin decreases in the trained cultures but returns towards the normal level in the reverted cultures, indicates the development of an adaptative enzyme balance in the organism due to the action of viomycin.
