As the previous HPLC method (Ogasawara et al., 1983) was described for the analysis of aclacinomycin A and some of its analogue compounds but not for aclacinomycin Y, we developed novel HPLC condition by optimizing solvent system. The newly developed solvent system allowed a complete separation of aclacinomycins Y and A, as opposed to the incomplete resolution of these two compounds in conventional method. The amounts of aclacinomycins Y and A could be accurately determined when the fermentation broth of Streptomyces lavendofoliae DKRS was analyzed by the newly developed method.
