the Purification and Antiviral Activities of Noxiversin.

In 1947 a mould was found growing as a contaminant on a Lowenstein's slope which had been inoculated with sputum for the isolation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Investigation of the mould showed that it produced, in addition to an antibiotic probably identical with penicillin, a substance capa...
