Separation of nebramycin components by thin-layer chromatography.

A thin-layer chromatographic method has been developed for the detection of major nebramycin components, for the separation of tobramycin from other components and for studying the hydrolysis of carbamoyl derivatives and procedures for isolation and purification. A sensitive method has also been established for the detection of kanamycin B in tobramycin and for the assay of apramycin in kanamycin B.
