Abstract

Lavendomycin, a new basic peptide Antibiotic containing novel Amino acids, has been isolated from the culture broth of a streptomyces designated as Streptomyces lavendulae subsp. brasilicus. The Antibiotic obtained as colorless crystals (C29H50N10O8, MW 666) is active against Gram-positive bacteria in vitro and in vivo, however, inactive against Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. An acute toxicity of the Antibiotic in mice was LD50 greater than 2 g/kg by subcutaneous injection.
