title: L-671,329, a new antifungal agent. I. Fermentation and isolation.
abstract: In screening for new antifungal agents from fungi, a new lipopeptide antifungal agent, L-671,329, similar to echinocandin B, has been isolated from Zalerion arboricola. Studies indicate that L-671,329 is produced under both solid and liquid fermentation conditions.
