Antibiotic Production: Streptomyces lincolnensis produces lincomycin, a lincosamide antibiotic. Lincomycin is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive bacteria, including staphylococci, streptococci, and anaerobic bacteria. It is used clinically to treat various infections, including skin and soft tissue infections, respiratory tract infections, and infections caused by anaerobic bacteria.
Clinical Applications: Lincomycin, produced by Streptomyces lincolnensis, has been used clinically for many years to treat bacterial infections in humans and animals. However, its use is now more limited due to the availability of other antibiotics and concerns about antibiotic resistance and side effects.
Antibiotic Resistance Studies: Streptomyces lincolnensis and its antibiotic, lincomycin, have been studied in the context of antibiotic resistance. Understanding the mechanisms of action and resistance to lincomycin can provide insights into combating antibiotic resistance in bacteria.
Biotechnological Applications: Lincomycin and its derivatives may have various biotechnological applications beyond medicine. They may be used in agriculture as growth promoters for livestock or in industry for the production of semi-synthetic antibiotics.
Environmental Health: Streptomyces lincolnensis, like other Streptomyces species, plays roles in soil ecology and nutrient cycling, which indirectly impact human health through ecosystem services such as soil fertility and environmental sustainability.

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
