Abstract
Abstract New antiviral agent U-50,228 and derivatives thereof, produced by the controlled fermentation of the known microorganism Streptomyces platensis var. clarensis var nova, NRRL 8035. This antiviral agent and its derivatives are active against DNA-viruses, for example, the Herpes virus and, thus, can be used to control such virus where its presence is not desired. For example, U-50,228 and its derivatives can be used to swab laboratory benches and equipment in a virology laboratory to eliminate the presence of Herpes virus.

Claim 6
Dependent Claim
58 words
A process for isolating pure U-50,228 from a preparation containing a mixture of U-50,228 and U-44,590, which comprises: a. subjecting a mixture of antibiotic U-44,590 and U-50,228 to counter double current distribution to obtain preparations containing a mixture of U-44,590 and U-50,228; and b. subjecting said preparations to silica gel chromatography to isolate a pure preparation of U-50,228.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
58 words
A process for isolating pure U-50,228 from a preparation containing a mixture of U-50,228 and U-44,590, which comprises: a. subjecting a mixture of antibiotic U-44,590 and U-50,228 to counter double current distribution to obtain preparations containing a mixture of U-44,590 and U-50,228; and b. subjecting said preparations to silica gel chromatography to isolate a pure preparation of U-50,228.

A process, according to claim 4, wherein said counter double current distribution is conducted using a solvent system consisting of 1-butanol-water (1:1).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
23 words
A process, according to claim 4, wherein said silica gel chromatography is conducted using a solvent system consisting of ethyl acetate-methanol (6:1 v/v).
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
114 words
A process for isolating pure U-50,228 from a preparation containing a mixture of U-50,228 and U-44,590, which comprises: a. subjecting a preparation containing a mixture of U-44,590 and U-50,228 to a series of silica gel chromatographies to obtain fractions containing U-44,590 and U-50,228; b. acetylating said fractions containing a mixture of U-44,590 and U-50,228 to obtain acetylated U-50,228 free of acetylated U-44,590; c. subjecting said acetylated U-50,228 to silica gel chromatography to obtain a pure preparation of acetylated U-50,228; and d. subjecting said pure preparation of acetylated U-50,228 to a deacetylation procedure to obtain a deacetylated preparation of U-50,228 which is then subjected to silica gel chromatography to give a pure preparation of U-50,228.
