Abstract

Verdamicin is a new aminoglycoside antibiotic isolated from fermentation broths of a species of the genus Micromonospora, M. grisea. It has been differentiated from other known related antibiotics by a variety of chemical and biological methods. Its in vitro and in vivo spectrum of activity appears to be similar to those of gentamicin and sisomicin.
