                                        Comment: Boromycin is a polyether macrolide, initially isolated from a new strain of Streptomyces antibioticus (ETH 28 829), and reported as the first boron-containing natural product to be identified [3-4]. It is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial compound, with potent activity against a number of Gram-positive bacteria, viruses, and protozoan parasites [1-2,4-5].
