Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a fermentation process for the preparation of substantially pure pravastatin. The process provides a method of producing pravastatin by microbial hydroxylation of compactin (ML-236B) by maintaining a concentration of compactin at not less than 300 ~g /ml during the process. T he process produces substantially pure pravastatin with reduced related impurities. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions that include the substantially pure pravastatin.
