TEICHOMYCIN A2 PURE SINGLE FACTORS 1,2,3,4 AND 5

摘要

The invention refers to an individual antibiotic substance selected from the group consisting of Teichomycin A2 factor 1, Teichomycin A2 factor 2, Teichomycin A2 factor 3, Teichomycin A2 factor 4 and Teichomycin A2 factor 5 in substantially pure form, and to the method of producing them by recovery from Teichomycin A2, a known antibiotic substance, by means of high-efficiency chromatographic methods. The single pure Teichomycin A2 factor 1, Teichomycin A2 factor 2, Teichomycin A2 factor 3, Teichomycin A2 factor 4 and Teichomycin A2 factor 5 are biologically distinguishable from Teichomycin A2 in that they have a higher degree of antibiotic activity against susceptible microorganisms.
