    1. Lincomycin is produced by Streptomyces lincolnensis and is chemically distinct from all other clinically available antibiotics.
    It is readily soluble in water. It is effective in vitro against most of the common gram-positive pathogens. It is also effective against certain Mycoplasma, Spirochete and anaerobic organisms.
    2. Spectinomycin is produced by Streptomyces flavopersicus. Spectinomycin free base is weakly basic and readily soluble in
    water. It has in vivo and in vitro activity against many gram-positive, gram-negative and Mycoplasma organixms but, like
    lincomycin, is inactive against yeasts, molds and viruses.
