Abstract
Antibiotics 10-dihydrosteffimycin (U-58,875), and 10-dihydrosteffimycin B (U-58,874) are produced by carbon 10 ketonic carbonyl reduction in fermentation processes using the known antibiotics steffimycin and steffimycin B, respectively, as starting materials. These novel antibiotics are active against various microorganisms, for example, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Sarcina lutea, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Mycobacterium avium. Thus, these antibiotics can be used to inhibit the growth of the above microorganisms in various environments.
