چکیده
A new species of Actinoplanes, which has been deposited with the designation NRRL 5325 at the Northern Utilization Research and Development Division of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, produces a polyene antifungal complex designated as Sch 16656. The complex, consisting of one major and three minor components, is isolated from the fermentation broth by a solvent extraction procedure and purified by precipitation methods. The major component is a heptaene and is highly active in vitro and in vivo against Candida albicans. It is active also against strains of Torulopsis and is significantly more potent orally than candicidin in mice against Candida infections.

YS-822A, a new polyene macrolide antibiotic. I. Production, isolation, characterization and biological properties.
A new polyene macrolide antibiotic, YS-822A was isolated from the culture filtrate of a mutant strain H-8 of Streptoverticillium eurocidicum var. asterocidicus S-822. Whereas the original S-822 strain produced not only YS-822 substances but also teleocidin as by-product which is well-known as a strong carcinogenic promoter, the mutagenized H-8 strain produced the antibiotic with only a trace am...

Neo-enactin (NE) produced by Streptoverticilium olivoreticuli subsp. neoenacticus is the antifungal antibiotic potentiating the activities of polyene antifungal antibiotics and antitumor agents, such as bleomycins and vincristines1-3) Physico-chemical and biological properties of NE are closely related to those of antibiotic H 646-SY3 (later designated as enactin)4). Both antibiotics contain L-...

A new strain, streptomyces sp. S. 24 was isolated from a soil sample collected from Japan. The strain produced heptaene polyene antibiotic, SJA-95, in submerged culture and found to elicit promising antifungal activity against yeasts, filamentous fungi and clinical isolates, both in vitro and in vivo. Experimental studies were carried out using biological methods to understand the probable mech...
متن کاملCharacterization of Streptomyces padanus JAU4234, a producer of actinomycin X₂, fungichromin, and a new polyene macrolide antibiotic.
Strain JAU4234, identified as Streptomyces padanus, was isolated from soil collected in Jiangxi Province, China. It produced actinomycin X2, fungichromin, and a new polyene macrolide compound with antifungal activity, antifungalmycin 702. Antifungalmycin 702 had good general antifungal activity and may have potential future agricultural and/or clinical applications.
