Abstract
The present invention provides a newly isolated mutant culture of Actinoplanes teichomyceticus BNG 2315. This culture is capable of producing teicoplanin more than 60 times productivity than those reported before (e.g., Actinoplanes teichomyceticus nov. sp. ATCC 31121). The present invention also provides a fermentation process for the production of teicoplanin in an aerobic condition using the mutant strain Actinoplanes teichomyceticus BNG 2315 in a culture-medium comprising carbon sources, nitrogen sources and mineral salts.
