چکیده

Soil enrichment technique was followed to isolate the fungi capable of performing biotransformation of albendazole. Among the 5 fungi isolated, Aspergillus fumigatus, A. niger and Penicillium chrysogenum could transform albendazole to one metabolite and Fusarium moniliforme could transform albendazole to two metabolites. The transformation was confirmed by HPLC. Based on LC-MS-MS analysis, the metabolites formed were predicted to be albendazole sulfoxide and albendazole sulfone. The results support that the soil enrichment is a promising technique for isolation of fungi with industrial applicability, viz. production of active metabolites from drugs.

Relating microbial community structure to functioning in forest soil organic carbon transformation and turnover

Forest soils store vast amounts of terrestrial carbon, but we are still limited in mechanistic understanding on how soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization or turnover is controlled by biotic and abiotic factors in forest ecosystems. We used phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) as biomarker to study soil microbial community structure and measured activities of five extracellular enzymes involved in...
