Abstract excerpt
After exposure of an inactive actinomycete to ethidium bromide a stable mutant producing an antibiotic on a solid medium was isolated. The exposure to methylnitrosoguanidine provided the isolation of a more productive variant synthesizing the antibiotic in a liquid medium. By UV, IR, NMR and mass...
