3 Glycopeptide story: from natural to semi-synthetic synthetic derivatives ~ 1950 : discovery of vancomycin in Mississipi mud ~ 1985 : large clinical use in USA Gram(+) infections and digestive tract decontamination Problems: toxicity of vancomycin due to impurities better purification procedures (after 1970 ) emergence of resistance. By the way.~ 1980 : discovery of teicoplanin, as a natural GP with improved PK largely used in Europe

4 Glycopeptide story: from natural to semi-synthetic synthetic derivatives ~ 1990 : Launching of large scale research program for finding GP with optimized properties hemi-synthetic compounds Malabarba and icas Med Res Rev.
