Use of Fluorouracil-Uracil Combinations to Study Growth Accompanied by Insufficient Deoxyribonucleic Acid Synthesis in Bacillus cereus

5-Fluorouracil (FU) at a concentration of 16 μM almost totally inhibited deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis and cell division by Bacillus cereus, whereas growth continued at an exponential rate (25% of control for at least 3 h). In cultures simultaneously given 160 μM uracil (U) along with the FU...
