This paper has collected 70 recognized type strains of actinomycete from home and abroad Microbiological culture collection centers. Adopting thin-layer chromatography and thin-layer chromatogram scanner methods to quantitatively analyze the composition of cell-wall amino acids in actinomycete. It has made comparison between quantitative results and qualitative ones. After a thorough discussion, a revision is made on the standard of dividing cell-wall types in actinomycete chemical classification, which has provided some original suggestion in hope of improving the research of actinomycete chemical classification.
