Antibiotiki. 1976 Jun;21(6):507-11.
Self-organization of various submicroscopic formations, such as "tubes", "ribbons", etc. differing in ultrastructure and containing a polyenic antibiotic was observed in acetone extracts of the mycelium of the "fructose" variant of Actinomyces roseoflavus var. roseofungini. Conditions for separate isolation of the above structures are described. Concentration of the extract and the ratio of the volumes of water added to the extract are determinant for the process of self-organization. A possibility of reorganization of the tubular structures into the ribbon-like ones and vice versa is shown.
