Biotransformation of Selamectin with Streptomyces lydicus SX-1298 Using a Novel Static Agar Fermentation System with Reemay® Mesh

A novel approach to biotransformation is described using a solid medium matrix and Reemay® mesh that gives efficient biotransformation of compounds with minimal matrices in the ensuing gum solids. Using this approach with a newly isolated biotransforming organism, Streptomyces lydicus SX1298, a seri...

Description
Summary:A novel approach to biotransformation is described using a solid medium matrix and Reemay® mesh that gives efficient biotransformation of compounds with minimal matrices in the ensuing gum solids. Using this approach with a newly isolated biotransforming organism, Streptomyces lydicus SX1298, a series of hydroxylations and an O-demethylation is described for selamectin the first endectocide for cats and dogs.
