Stoffwechselprodukte von Actinomyceten. 37. Mitteilung. Acumycin

Abstract
Acumycin, a new antibiotic, could be isolated in crystalline form from cultures of a new strain, ETH 23112, of Streptomyces griseoflavus. On acid hydrolysis the dimethylamino‐sugar mycaminose is obtained. From this and other evidence it is concluded that acumycin belongs to the group of the macrolide antibiotics.
