Sixty five cultures of Actinomadura were isolated from samples of different soils. The study of their antibiotic activity on liquid nutrient media showed that 49 of them were active against gram-postive bacteria. The antibiotics isolated fromsome cultures of Am. carminata, Am. rubra, Am. coerulea and Am. luteofluorescens had antitumor effect in experiments on animals.
