    NT$8,091.72 - NT$28,128.36

    Nogalamycin is an unusual anthracycline produced by Streptomyces nogalater var. nogalater, reported by researchers at Upjohn in 1965. Nogalamycin contains two saccharides: the neutral monosaccharide attaches to the D ring, similar to the aminoglycoside moieties of the doxorubicin class, while the second, basic saccharide attaches to the phenolic group on the A ring in the ortho position to form a unique family of hexacyclic anthracyclines. Nogalamycin is potent antibacterial and antitumor agent.

    Nogalamycin is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF or DMSO.
