  • Patent number: 4148880
    Abstract: A species of Actinoplanes, designated Actinoplanes auranticolor ATCC 31011, when subjected to submerged aerobic fermentation under controlled conditions, produces a mixture of antibiotics which includes a number of macrocyclic lactones and depsipeptides. The individual compounds exhibit significant antibiotic activity. The crude antibiotic mixture or combinations of a pure macrocyclic lactone and a pure depsipeptide demonstrate marked synergistic antibiotic activity. These antibiotics act as growth promotants in chicks and swine and are effective in the treatment of swine dysentery.This mixture of antibiotics is also produced by a species of Actinoplanes designated Actinoplanes azureus ATCC 31157. In addition, this culture produces a mixture of heptaene antibiotics with antifungal properties.

  • Patent number: 4076940
    Abstract: A process for the conversion of the major antifungal antibiotic, acid S (ATCC NO. 25532) isolated from the fermentation of Polyangium cellulosum var. fulvum into the minor antibiotic, acid F, from the same fermentation is described wherein acid S is methylated with diazomethane to provide acid S methyl ester which is then oxidized with silver carbonate on celite to obtain the corresponding keto ester S, which is subsequently reduced with sodium borohydride to give a mixture of acid S methyl ester and acid F methyl ester. These esters are readily separated by preparative thin layer chromatography and the acid F methyl ester is hydrolyzed with sodium hydroxide solution to provide acid F.
