Lincomycin is a lincosamide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces lincolensis. Lincomycin is bacteriostatic in action inhibiting the protein synthesis predominately by binding to the 50 S ribosomal subunits of bacteria. It is active against a wide range of Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococci, Streptococci, β- haemolytic Streptococci, Corynebacteriua, Erysipelothrix spp. & anaerobic bacteria such as Clostridia, Bacteroides spp., Brachyspira spp., as well as Leptospira spp. & Mycoplasma spp. Lincomycin has no activity against Gram-negative bacteria such as Klebsiella spp., Pasteurella spp. & Salmonella spp.
