Extracellular polysaccharides of Penicillium vermiculatum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Extracellular Polysaccharide, Isolation, Characterization Extracellular polysaccharide mixture that forms a viscous mucilate in the fermentation medium during industrial cultivation of Penicillium vermiculatum was isolated by ethanol precipitation and its structural characteristics were investigated by a combination of physicochemical methods. The mixture contained two structurally different polysaccharides similar to those previously described for some fungal species. This is the first report of the fully structurally characterized extracellular polysaccharides of Penicillium vermiculatum.

Vermixocins A and B, two novel metabolites from Penicillium vermiculatum.
Vermixocins A and B, 3-(1'-hydroxy-3'-methylbutyl)- and 3-(1'-acetoxy-3'-methylbutyl)-11-hydroxy-4-methoxy-9-methyl-5H,7H- dibenzo[c,f][1,5]dioxocin-5-one, respectively, were isolated from the mycelium of Penicillium vermiculatum. Both metabolites showed cytotoxic effects on lympholeukemia cells P388.
متن کاملSynthesis and Biotransformation of Bicyclic Unsaturated Lactones with Three or Four Methyl Groups.
The aim of this study was to obtain new unsaturated lactones by chemical synthesis and their microbial transformations using fungal strains. Some of these strains were able to transform unsaturated lactones into different hydroxy or epoxy derivatives. Strains of Syncephalastrum racemosum and Absidia cylindrospora gave products with a hydroxy group introduced into a tertiary carbon, while the Pe...
متن کاملFungus-mediated Extracellular Biosynthesis and Characterization of Zirconium Nanoparticles Using Standard Penicillium Species and Their Preliminary Bactericidal Potential: A Novel Biological Approach to Nanoparticle Synthesis
Biological synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) has gained extensive attention during recent years by using various biological resources such as plant extracts and microorganisms as reducing and stabilizing agents. The objective of the present study was to biosynthesize zirconium NPs using Penicillium species as a reliable and eco-friendly protocol for the first time. The synthesized NPs w...

متن کاملFructose affecting morphology and inducing β-fructofuranosidases in Penicillium janczewskii
Fructose, glucose, and an equimolar mixture of both sugars affected differently hyphae thickness, biomass production and secretion of β-fructofuranosidase in Penicillium janczewskii. Reduced growth, thinner hyphae and visible injuries were early observed during fungal cultivation in fructose-containing medium, reaching the maximum between 12 and 15 days of culture. Total sugar content from the ...
