Two methods of large-scale extraction of an antibiotic produced by Myxococcus coralloides.
Two methods for the isolation of an antibiotic produced by Myxococcus coralloides have been developed: the chloroform extraction method and the charcoal adsorption method. The recovery of antibiotic in each case was 25% and 30%, respectively, by the two methods. Although the two methods yield a relative low recovery, the charcoal adsorption method seems more attractive and promising due to its simplicity and economic advantages.
