Abstract:

Fungi produce a wide range of secondary metabolites such as antibiotics, toxins, alkaloids, fatty acids, ketones and alcohols during active cell growth. The present study was aimed to identify secondary metabolites from some Penicillium species, using GC-MS. Many important compounds such as 3-oxoquinuclidine in Penicillium jenseii, formamidine in Penicillium pusillum, orcinol and 1,3,8-p-menthatriene in Penicillium canescens and limonene in Penicillium purpurogenum were identified. Moreover, fatty acids and hydrocarbons were produced by all tested species.

Identification of biological secondary metabolites in three Penicillium species, P. goditanum, P. moldavicum, and P. corylophilum

Microorganisms are important components of soil. Some soil filamentous fungi such asPenicilium produce many bioactive small molecules, or secondary metabolites, that range frombeneficial bioactive compounds to harmful toxins. In this study, the metabolites of threepenicillium species (P. goditanum, P. moldavicum and P. corylophilum) were extracted byadding ethyl acetate to liquid cultures. The ...

Isolation, structural identification and biological activity of two metabolites produced by Penicillium olsonii Bainier and Sartory.

From the culture broth of a fungus, two metabolites have been isolated: bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) precedently isolated from Streptomyces sp. and 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-oxoacetaldehyde oxime (PHBA) here reported as a natural compound in the (E)-s-cis configuration. The producing organism was identified as a strain of Penicillium olsonii. Culture growth and chemical identification are disc...

Potentially harmful secondary metabolites produced by indoor Chaetomium species on artificially and naturally contaminated building materials.

The presence of the fungal genus Chaetomium and its secondary metabolites in indoor environments is suspected to have a negative impact on human health and well-being. About 200 metabolites have been currently described from Chaetomium spp., but only the bioactive compound group, chaetoglobosins, have been screened for and thus detected in buildings. In this study, we used a liquid chromatograp...
