Oligostatins, new antibiotics with amylase inhibitory activity I. production, isolation and characterization

Abstract

Oligostatins C, D and E, three new antibiotics were found in the culture filtrate of Streptomyces myxogenes nov. sp. SF-1130. Their spectral and chemical properties suggested that oligostatins were basic oligosaccharide antibiotics. They exhibited not only antibacterial activity but also strong amylase inhibitory activity. © 1981, JAPAN ANTIBIOTICS RESEARCH ASSOCIATION. All rights reserved.
