Abstract
A new antibiotic, U-62162, was isolated from the fermentations of Streptomyces verdensis Dietz, sp. nov. (UC-8157). The compound was characterized and its gross structure was elucidated. The antibiotic inhibited the growth of gram-positive bacteria (particularly Staphylococcus aureus) but was inactive in experimentally infected animals.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
