Daunorubicin
An anticancer antibiotic of the anthracycline family, produced by the soil bacterium Streptomyces peucetius. Discovered in Italy between the 1950s and 1960s and, almost at the same time, in France, it is used mainly against acute myeloid leukaemia; in the United States since 1979. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards and other impurities.
Did you know?The name combines the Dauni, the ancient people of Apulia where the soil sample was collected near Castel del Monte, and rubis, French for ruby, for its red colour.
