  • Title: Separation and determination of polyether carboxylic antibiotics from Streptomyces hygroscopicus NRRL B 1865 by thin-layer chromatography with flame ionization detection.
    Author: Auboiron S, Bauchart D, David L.
    Journal: J Chromatogr; 1991 Jun 28; 547(1-2):411-8. PubMed ID: 1894724.
    Abstract:
    Thin-layer chromatography coupled with flame ionization detection was used to develop a method to separate and to determine simultaneously three polyether carboxylic ionophore antibiotics (abierixin, nigericin and grisorixin) produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus NRRL B 1865. Various proportions of chloroform, methanol and formic acid (or acetic acid as a substitute for formic acid) were used in the developing solvent to determine changes in RF values of the antibiotics and to allow conditions for maximum resolution to be obtained. Development on Chromarods SII with chloroform-methanol-formic acid (97:4:0.6, v/v/v) gave satisfactory and reliable separations of the three polyether antibiotics. Under these conditions, the internal standard methyl desoxycholate was found to be suitable for their simultaneous determination in the lipid extracts of Streptomyces hygroscopicus NRRL B 1865.
