TL;DR: Two novel antibiotics, neocitreamicins I and II, were isolated from a fermentation broth of a Nocardia strain and showed in vitro activity against Gram-positive bacteria including strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis.

TL;DR: A new isofuranonaphthoquinone was isolated from cultures of an Actinoplanes isolate obtained using an in situ diffusion technology that facilitates the isolation of soil microorganisms and was demonstrated to have the ability to complex Fe(III).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the development of macrolactams and their analogs, processes for the preparation of these novel macroglactams, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising of the novel macro-actams; and methods of using the macroactams to treat or inhibit various disorders.

TL;DR: In this paper, two novel antibiotics, neocitreamicins I and II, were isolated from a fermentation broth of a Nocardia strain using an in situ diffusion chamber that facilitates the cultivation of soil microorganisms.
