If you know of anything like : that, please email mlevin@husc8.harvard.edu. : Mike Levin Most of the antibiotics used in cell culture (penn-strep, gentamycin, etc.) are only effective against prokaryotes. Fungicides are typically required to kill yeast. However, this is not to say that yeast won't have any adverse responses to the prokaryote-targeted antibiotics, if it's yeast you're TRYING to culture.
