L-155,175: a new antiparasitic macrolide. Fermentation, isolation and structure

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1985 Feb;38(2):161-8. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.38.161.

Abstract

A new antiparasitic macrolide, L-155,175, produced by a strain of Streptomyces hygroscopicus, has been isolated; its structure was determined by physico-chemical means. It is active against the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta in rats.
