The scientific rationale and development of an optimized stannous fluoride dentifrice, Part 1.
Stannous fluoride has been recognized as an effective anticavity therapeutic agent since the early 1950s. There has recently been a resurgence in activity to discover ways to fully exploit its documented antimicrobial activity. Through the use of targeted in vitro methodology to predict in vivo efficacy, a highly optimized stannous fluoride dentifrice has been developed. Careful selection of stabilizing agents formulated into a unique system has resulted in a Colgate Optimized Stannous Fluoride (COSF) dentifrice that has been proven to simultaneously help control supragingival plaque, gingivitis, supragingival calculus, and caries. Furthermore, the COSF dentifrice has been clinically shown not to cause the traditional stannous fluoride staining of dentition.

Parvodicin, a novel glycopeptide from a new species, Actinomadura parvosata: discovery, taxonomy, activity and structure elucidation.
An extensive taxonomic investigation identified strain SK&F-AAJ-271 as a new species, designated Actinomadura parvosata. Fermentations of this organism produce a complex of acidic, lipophilic glycopeptide antibiotics, the parvodicins. Structures for seven of the isolated components were derived from a combination of mass spectral, high-field NMR and chemical techniques. The O-acetyl functionality present in two of the isolated components is a structural feature unique among the known members of this class of antibiotics. The parvodicins are active in vitro against a range of Gram-positive bacteria. The most active parvodicin, C1, produces high serum levels in vivo and has the potential for a long duration of action.
