in this study, the biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles by penicillium chrysogenum, isolated from ahar copper mine, was investigated. the gold nanoparticles were synthesized by reducing the aqueous gold ions using the culture supernatant of the filamentous fungi. the uv–vis spectrum displayed a characteristic peak at 532 nm that is very specific for gold nanoparticles. the xrd spectrum confirmed ...

13 samples were collected from phone screens and headphones, the sample was by a cotton swab planted on Petri dishes. A number of fungal species isolated, their reached six types fungi, where most common fungi in Aspergillus, while headphones are Penicillium Aspergillus fungi. In addition to that, highest frequency with an incidence rate 30.76%, headphone Penicillium, 30.76%.

Pectin lyase and polygalacturonase production by newly isolated fungal strains was carried out in solid-state fermentation. Moniliella SB9 and Penicillium sp EGC5 produced polygalcturonase (PG) and pectin lyase (PL) on mixture of orange bagasse, sugar cane bagasse and wheat bran as substrate. PG and PL produced by Moniliella presented optimum activity at pH 4.5 and 10.0 and at 55 and 45°C, resp...

A 35 year old HIV positive patient from Hong Kong presented with a fever, cough and a skin rash in association with a lung mass, all of which were due to disseminated Penicillium marneVei infection. He made a good response to antifungal therapy. The lung mass is a previously undescribed pulmonary manifestation of disseminated Penicillium marneVei infection. Infections with this fungus should be...

During a survey of marine fungi from the waters surrounding Jeju Island, Korea, several Penicillium strains were isolated from seawater and marine sponges. Based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of the internal transcribed spacer and RNA polymerase subunit II, four strains were identified as Penicillium antarcticum, a fungus that, to the best of our knowledge, had not ...

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 po...

15-Deoxyoxalicine B (1) and decaturins A (2) and B (3) have been isolated from Penicillium decaturense and Penicillium thiersii, two previously undescribed species obtained as colonists of wood-decay fungi. The structures were determined by 2D NMR experiments and/or single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. These compounds are members of a rare structural class, and decaturins A and B feature ...

Seven new 6,6-spiroketals, sargassopenillines A-G (1-7) were isolated from the alga-derived fungi Penicillium thomii KMM 4645 and Penicillium lividum KMM 4663. The structures of these metabolites were determined by HR-MS and 1D and 2D NMR. The absolute configurations of compounds 1, 5 and 6 were assigned by the modified Mosher's method and by CD data. Sargassopenilline C (3) inhibited the trans...
