This invention relates to two new antibacterial and anti-tumor agents designated LL-BO1208.alpha. and LL-BO1208.beta. produced during microbiological fermentation, under controlled conditions, using the novel microorganism Streptoverticillium stramineum and mutants thereof.

Biologically pure culture of Streptoverticillium stramineum sp. nov.

This disclosure describes a new antibacterial agent designated LL-C23201.delta., produced in a microbiological fermentation under controlled conditions using a new strain of Streptomyces olivaceo-griseus, sp. nov. and mutants thereof. This new antibacterial agent is active against a variety of microorganisms and thus is useful in inhibiting the growth of such bacteria wherever they may be found.

Antibiotic LL-C23201.delta.

This disclosure describes four new antibacterial agents designated LL-C08078.alpha..sub.1, LL-C08078.alpha..sub.2, LL-C08078.alpha..sub.3 and LL-C08078.beta. produced in a microbiological fermentation under controlled conditions using a new strain of a new species of the genus Streptomyces called Streptomyces majorciensis Labeda, sp. nov., and mutants thereof. These new antibacterial agents are active against a variety of microorganisms and thus are useful in inhibiting the growth of such bacteria wherever they may be found. In addition, these agents are active as growth promotants in warm-blooded animals.

Biologically pure culture of Streptomyces majorciensis Labeda

This disclosure describes four new antibacterial agents designated LL-CO8078.alpha..sub.1, LL-CO8078.alpha..sub.2, LL-CO8078.alpha..sub.3 and LL-CO8078.beta. produced in a microbiological fermentation under controlled conditions using a new strain of a new species of the genus Streptomyces called Streptomyces majorciensis Labeda, sp. nov., and mutants thereof. These new antibacterial agents are active against a variety of microorganisms and thus are useful in inhibiting the growth of such bacteria wherever they may be found. In addition, these agents are active as growth promotants in warm-blooded animals.
