    Sammanfattning : The worldwide use of antibiotics has rapidly increased since the discovery of the secondary metabolite penicillin made by Alexander Fleming in 1928. Since then, thousands of useful secondary metabolites of microbial origin have been discovered. About 80 % of these substances originate from Actinomycetes and in particularly Streptomyces species.
