From a strain of Streptomyces antibioticus seven yellow phenazines were isolated. The antibacterially most active antibiotic was identified as (-)-saphenamycin, a second one with compound DC-86-Y (saphenic acid). Three compounds were new: Saphenic acid methyl ether, 6-acetylphenazine-1-carboxylic acid and an inseparable mixture of fatty acid esters of saphenic acid. Two simple phenazines were phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (tubermycin B) and unsubstituted phenazine, which was isolated for the first time from a microorganism.

Phenazostatins E-J (-), six new diphenazine derivatives, were isolated from the EtOAc extract of the culture broth of a strain of derived from deep-sea sediments of the Indian Ocean Ridge. The structures of - were elucidated based on the HRESIMS and 1D and 2D NMR spectra. The absolute configurations of -, except for and , were determined by modified Mosher's method, ECD data analysis, and calculations of optical rotation values.

Three new phenazine derivatives (-), along with known compounds (-) of saphenic acid derivatives, were isolated from a deep-sea sediment-derived yeast-like fungus collected from the Indian Ocean. The structures of the new compounds (-) were determined by analysis of spectroscopic data, semi-synthesis and comparison of optical rotation values. All the isolated compounds (-), except for , showed nitric oxide (NO) production inhibitory effect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced murine macrophage RAW 264.

Phenazine-type metabolites arise from either phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA) or phenazine-1,6-dicarboxylic acid (PDC). Although the biosynthesis of PCA has been studied extensively, PDC assembly remains unclear. Esmeraldins and saphenamycin, the PDC originated products, are antimicrobial and antitumor metabolites isolated from Streptomyces antibioticus Tü 2706.

Blood is routinely sampled from laboratory animals in biomedical research, and many of the commonly applied sampling techniques require anesthesia. Acute effects of many sampling and anesthesia procedures may confound the results, but those effects are incompletely characterized. We here compare the effects of four common anesthesia procedures (inhalation anesthesia with ether (EA) or isoflurane (IA) and intraperitoneal injection anesthesia with xylazin/ketamine (XKA) or medetomidine/midazolam/fentanyl (MMFA)) on plasma concentrations of glucose, lactate, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs), and corticosterone in blood obtained from a previously implanted jugular vein (JV) catheter with the effect of JV blood sampling from non-anesthetized, freely-moving rats (JV-NA).
