A Brazilian strain of Penicillium verrucosum was cultivated under different conditions in a two-step process, in order to verify the influence of nutrients, and of time periods of pre-fermentative and fermentative steps on the biosynthesis of metabolites. Extracellular and intracellular extracts were obtained from each culture in the four different production media used. Chemical profiles of the extracts were obtained by HPLC. Extract trypanocidal activities against trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi were evaluated. The time period of incubation in the pre-fermentative and fermentative media, as well as the different nutrients tested, qualitatively and quantitatively modified the production of secondary metabolites by P. verrucosum, and the extract trypanocidal activities. 相似文献

The conditions for the sequential production of antibiotic activity by Talaromyces flavus were determined. The highest level of activity against Trypanosoma cruzi was obtained from the aqueous extract of the Czapeck's fermentative culture after 48 hours, with lysis of 97.58% of the trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi (red blood cells remained normal). The antimicrobial activity was detected in the extracts of fermentative cultures from different media just after 144 hours of incubation. Maximum activities against Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans were present in chloroform, butanolic and water extracts, in this order, when Talaromyces flavus was cultivated at pH 5.0. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of extracts of Takeuchi's cultures were determined. 相似文献

Since Vibrio cholerae O139 first appeared in 1992, both O1 El Tor and O139 have been recognized as the epidemic serogroups, although their geographic distribution, endemicity, and reservoir are not fully understood. To address this lack of information, a study of the epidemiology and ecology of V. cholerae O1 and O139 was carried out in two coastal areas, Bakerganj and Mathbaria, Bangladesh, where cholera occurs seasonally. The results of a biweekly clinical study (January 2004 to May 2005), employing culture methods, and of an ecological study (monthly in Bakerganj and biweekly in Mathbaria from March 2004 to May 2005), employing direct and enrichment culture, colony blot hybridization, and direct fluorescent-antibody methods, showed that cholera is endemic in both Bakerganj and Mathbaria and that V. cholerae O1, O139, and non-O1/non-O139 are autochthonous to the aquatic environment. Although V. cholerae O1 and O139 were isolated from both areas, most noteworthy was the isolation of V. cholerae O139 in March, July, and September 2004 in Mathbaria, where seasonal cholera was clinically linked only to V. cholerae O1. In Mathbaria, V. cholerae O139 emerged as the sole cause of a significant outbreak of cholera in March 2005. V. cholerae O1 reemerged clinically in April 2005 and established dominance over V. cholerae O139, continuing to cause cholera in Mathbaria. In conclusion, the epidemic potential and coastal aquatic reservoir for V. cholerae O139 have been demonstrated. Based on the results of this study, the coastal ecosystem of the Bay of Bengal is concluded to be a significant reservoir for the epidemic serogroups of V. cholerae. 相似文献

Microbial transformation stands out among the many possible semi-synthetic strategies employed to increase the variety of chemical structures that can be applied in the search for novel bioactive compounds. In this paper we obtained ent-pimaradienoic acid (1, PA, ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid) derivatives by fungal biotransformation using Aspergillus niger strains. To assess the ability of such compounds to inhibit vascular smooth muscle contraction, we also investigated their spasmolytic effect, along with another five PA derivatives previously obtained in our laboratory, on aortic rings isolated from male Wistar rats. The microbial transformation experiments were conducted at 30 °C using submerged shaken liquid culture (120 rpm) for 10 days. One known compound, 7α-hydroxy ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (2), and three new derivatives, 1β-hydroxy ent-pimara-6,8(14),15-trien-19-oic acid (3), 1α,6β,14β-trihydroxy ent-pimara-7,15-dien-19-oic acid (4), and 1α,6β,7α,11α-tetrahydroxy ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (5), were isolated and identified on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and computational studies. The compounds obtained through biotransformation (2–5) did not display a significant antispasmodic activity (values ranging from 0% to 16.8% of inhibition); however the previously obtained diterpene, methyl 7α-hydroxy ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oate (8), showed to be very effective (82.5% of inhibition). In addition, our biological results highlight the importance to study the antispasmodic potential of a large number of novel diterpenes, to conduct further structure–activity relationship investigations. 相似文献

A polygalacturonase with a molecular mass of 74 kDa, an isoelectric point around pH 4.2 and pH--and temperature optima of 3.9 and 50 degrees C, respectively, was purified from a culture fluid of Penicillium frequentans. The enzyme was characterized as an exo-alpha-1,4-polygalacturonase (exo-PG I). Km and Vmax for sodium polypectate hydrolysis were 0.68 g/l and 596.8 U x mg(-1), respectively. The enzyme, a glycoprotein with a carbohydrate content of 81%, is probably the main pectinase of Penicillium frequentans responsible for cleaving monomer units from the non-reducing end of pectin. 相似文献

In a screening program for new antibiotic producers, a strain of Aspergillus fumigatus was isolated from Brazilian soil samples. A pool of autoclaved bacteria was added to part of the fungus culture on the second day of fermentation to increase antibiotic production. The chloroform extract from the culture broth to which the pool of autoclaved bacteria was added showed an increase of 55%, 63% and more than 100% in activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans and Micrococcus luteus, respectively. Also, the HPLC chromatographic profiles of the chloroform extracts from both culture conditions were different. Two active compounds were isolated from the broth of the culture grown in the presence of pooled bacteria and were identified as 3,4-dimethoxyphenol and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene. 相似文献

A strain of Penicillium corylophilum isolated from Brazilian soil sample was submitted to different culture conditions to investigate the production of secondary metabolites with antimicrobial activity. The largest number of conidia was obtained after 5 days of incubation in oat medium and the highest level of antimicrobial activity was produced when the fungus culture was developed in the Czapek medium. The activity against Staphylococcus aureus was found only in the chloroform extract from Czapek culture broth, which also showed activity against Micrococcus luteus. Fumiquinozoline F was isolated from the active chloroform extract by using chromatographic methods. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for M. luteus and S. aureus were 99 μg/mL and 137 μg/mL, respectively. 相似文献
