Abstract excerpt
Carotenoids produced by strains 4Crt and 4Lcp, spontaneous mutants oflandomycin E producer Streptomyces globisporus 1912 with activated cryptic genes of carotenogenesis, were identified, and their quantitative output was studied after growth of Streptomycete cultures on different mealy media in shake flasks. On the basis of chromatographic mobility and maxima of absorption spectra of purified pigments they were...
