title: Gualamycin, a novel acaricide produced by Streptomyces sp. NK11687. I. Taxonomy, production, isolation, and preliminary characterization.
abstract: A novel acaricide, gualamycin, was isolated from the culture broth of Streptomyces sp. NK11687. It was purified from the filtrate by column chromatographies. Gualamycin showed 100% acaricidal activity at 250 micrograms/ml against sensitive and resistant mites to Dicofol.
