  • Patent number: 4247542
    Abstract: A-40104 antibiotic complex, comprising active factors A, B, C, and D, produced by submerged aerobic fermentation of Clitopilus pseudo-pinsitus. Individual factors A, B, and C have been isolated. A-40104 factor C is the known antibiotic pleuromutilin. A-40104 factors A and B are novel antibiotics related to pleuromutilin. A-40104 factor A, the major new factor, is the D-xylose acetal derivative of pleuromutilin. A-40104 factors A and B, their 19,20-dihydro derivatives and the per(C.sub.2 -C.sub.6)alkanoyl derivatives of factors A and B and of their 19,20-dihydro derivatives are active against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, anaerobic bacteria, and Mycoplasma.

  • Patent number: 4226879
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new composition designated as AM-1042 or asukamycin. AM-1042 has an antibiotic activity upon Gram-positive bacteria and Eimeria, and its acute toxicity (LD.sub.50 ' ip.) in mice was 48.5 mg./kg. AM-1042 has an excellent therapeutical effect on various infectious diseases caused by a parasite of Gram-positive bacteria and Eimeria. AM-1042 has been confirmed to be distinguishable from known antibiotics such as e.g. amicetin B, azomycin and manumycin. AM-1042 is produced by fermentation of a microorganism belonging to the genus Streptomyces and capable of producing AM-1042.

  • Patent number: RE30339
    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.
