Abstract: Solutions of carboplatin and other malonato platinum(II) antitumor agents are prepared containing stabilizing amounts of 1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylic acid or salt at pH 4-8. The stabilizers inhibit unacceptable discoloration and precipitation. The solutions may also be stabilized by purging the carrier with air or oxygen and, optionally, blanketing the headspace with air or oxygen.

Abstract: Production of an antiviral antibiotic complex, BU-3889V and its bioactive components A.sub.1, A.sub.2, A.sub.3, D.sub.1, D.sub.2 and D.sub.3, by fermentation of a BU-3889V producing strain of the new microorganism Amycolatopsis orientalis ATCC-53884 is disclosed. Complex BU-3889V is recovered and the components separated by the use of ion exchange chromatography techniques. The bioactive components are characterized by their physico-chemical characterizing properties. The products have been found to be effective to inhibit viruses including herpes simplex virus, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and influenza virus.
Abstract: A certain fermentation product of Actinomadura strain Q473-8 yields, when suitably treated, a novel compound having both antibiotic and antitumor activities.
