Abstract:
A new antifungal antibiotic named acmycin was isolated from a soil streptomycete. Detailed comparative taxonomic studies showed that the organism differed from three related species of streptomycetes. The organism was referred to as Streptomyces sp. AC2. The isolated antibiotic appears to be of polyene nature.
