Method of making A80438 by culture of Streptomyces bobili NRRL 15971 and synergistic compositions comprising (1) and A80438 compound and (2) nicarbazin, 4,4'-dinitrocarbanilide, certain napthalenamine and benzenamine compounds or metichlorpindol are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention disclosed novel recombinant DNA cloning vectors including pMND1000 and vectors derived therefrom for use in Streptomyces and related organisms. These novel cloning vectors contain genetic markers that provide antibiotic resistance or colorimetric selectivity to the host cells. The invention further comprises transformants of the aforementioned vectors.

Abstract: A hitherto undescribed microorganism, Streptomyces virginiae NRRL 12525, which upon culturing produces the A41030 antibiotic complex comprising several factors. The A41030 antibiotics produced show antibacterial activity against the gram-positive genera Staphylococcus and Streptococcus which are resistant to penicillin. In addition, these antibiotic act to promote growth and improve feed efficiency in ruminant animals, poultry and swine, and other livestock, and to improve milk production in ruminant animals.
