Pradimicins T1 and T2, new antifungal antibiotics produced by an actinomycete. I. Taxonomy, production, isolation, physico-chemical and biological properties.
Pradimicins T1 and T2, new members of the pradimicin family of antibiotics, were produced by an actinomycete strain AA3798. Pradimicin T1 exhibited potent activity against a wide spectrum of fungi in vitro and demonstrated efficacy against systemic Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus infections in mice.
