Seven synthetic tetrahydroquinolines with different substitution patterns were obtained by an imino Diels-Alder condensation reaction and were evaluated against phytopathogenic fungi. Compounds with a methoxy group showed interesting activity against Cladosporium cladosporoides with a MIC value of 13.75 microg/mL

During 2002-03 forty-four different barley growing regions in East Azarbaijanprovince of Iran were sampled for epiphytic fungi. Isolation of fungi was achieved using standard methods. As the result 374 hyphomycetous isolates were obtained that were placed in 22 genera and 49 species based on colony morphology and microscopic features (Table 1). Among these, Acremonium egyptiacum, A. sclerotigen...

Many industrial practices and waste treatment operations produce gas streams containing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that require treatment. Although biological treatment has been applied successfully to treat many waste gases, the literature contains numerous reports of diminished treatment performance under conditions of excessive drying or low pH in biofilter beds. Use of fungi in biofi...

Um novo sesquiterpeno, aromadendrano-4β,10α,15-triol, foi isolado das folhas de Xylopia brasiliensis Spreng (Annonaceae), juntamente com quatro derivados de esqueleto aromadendrano e três esteróides. As estruturas dos metabólitos foram definidas por meio da análise dos respectivos espectros de RMN, incluindo experimentos bidimensionais, além de espectrometria de massas. Os sesquiterpenos aromad...
