Marine biodiscovery or bioprospecting activity is a search for marine products derived from marine biodiversity that can be developed for various industrial needs. Including in this activity is the process of identifying chemical compounds made by biological organisms which is often called natural product discovery. Indonesia, well known as a mega-diversity country, is one of the world hot spor...

The species diversity of marine heterobranch sea slugs found on field trips around Bunaken Island (North Sulawesi, Indonesia) and adjacent islands of the Bunaken National Marine Park forms the basis of this review. In a survey performed in 2015, 80 species from 23 families were collected, including 17 new species. Only three of these have been investigated previously in studies from Indonesia. ...

Six new angucyclinone polyketides named panglimycins A-F were isolated together with the three known metabolites (+)-fujianmycin A, (+)-ochromycinone, and emycin C from the bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract of the Indonesian Streptomyces strain ICBB8230. The new compounds are highly oxygenated angucyclinones that appear to be biosynthetically derived from ochromycinone or fujianmycin...

The menace of cervical cancer has reached an alarming rate. There are more than 450.000cases of cervical cancer yearly, with mortality rate of about 50%. This deadly cancer is causedby human papillomavirus (HPV), mainly subtypes 16 and 18. The pharmaceutical industryhas produced drug for combating the virus, known as SAHA (suberoylanilide hydroxamicacid). It inhibits class II HDAC Homo sapiens ...

Bacterial spores have special significance in foods because they are much more resistant to physical and chemical antimicrobial treatment. Nowadays, there is interest in using natural products such as plant extract for food preservation. In this study, 26 of tropical medicinal plants and spices were screened for their sporicidal activity against the spores of Bacillus cereus. The spores of B. c...
