Antibiotic A-2315 mixture, comprising microbiologically active, structurally related factors A, B, and C, produced by culturing Actinoplanes philippinensis NRRL 5462 under submerged aerobic fermentation conditions. Individual factors A, B, and C are separated and isolated by chromatographic procedures. The A-2315 antibiotics are useful in controlling the growth of cariogenic organisms, in promoting the growth of chickens, and in increasing feed-utilization efficiency in ruminants. |
