Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 136 words
An antibiotic BN-200 substance having the following properties: Form and Color: white powder Elemental Analysis: C 67.46%, H 7.24%, N 7.55%, O 17.75% (balance); Molecular Weight: 520; determined from the titration value; Melting Point: Begins to turn brown at 150° C., and begins to decompose at 156° C.; Specific Rotatory Power: [α] D 20 =-70.7 (C=1, methanol); Ultraviolet Absorption Spectrum (in methanol): as shown in FIG. 1; Infrared Absorption Spectrum (KBr tablet); as shown in FIG. 2; Solubility in Solvents: Soluble in methanol, ethanol, pyridine, dimethylformamide, acetone, and dimethyl sulfoxide, and insoluble in benzene, ethyl acetate, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, petroleum ether, and water; Color Reactions: positive with ferric chloride, potassium permanganate and iodine, and negative with ninhydrin, Sakaguchi, biuret, Fehling, Molisch, and anthrone. Rf Values in Silica Gel Thin-Layer Chromatography: Chloroform-Methanol (9:1)--0.57 Benzene-Ethanol (9:1)--0.47 Benzene-Acetone (1:1)--0.76

Claim 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
A process for producing the antibiotic BN-200 substance of claim 1, which comprises aerobically cultivating Erwinia sp. BN-200 strain (FERM-P 3561/ATCC-31420), as a BN-200 substance-producing strain, in a culture medium containing assimilable carbon and nitrogen sources at a temperature of about 20° to about 35° C., and recovering the BN-200 substance from the culture broth.
