Cut specimens of the common reef sponge of the Verongid family, Aplysina fistularis, were retained in flow‐through seawater tanks over a six‐week period to assess the metabolite profile of the sponge when subjected to stress, compare the profile with the source material, and assess the preliminary feasibility of the protocol for sponge culture. The living specimens were harvested, extracted with MeOH/CH...
Fractionation of the MeOH/CH2Cl2 extract of the sponge Amphimedon compressa afforded the secondary metabolite amphitoxin (1), the structure of which was elucidated by interpretation of 1H‐ and 13C‐NMR data. The crude extract and the fractions containing the metabolite 1 were assessed for ichthyotoxic and insecticidal activity towards Xiphophorus variatus (moon fish) and Cylas formicarius elegantulus...
The utility of two locally isolated fungi, pathogenic to banana, for steroid biotransformation has been studied. The deuteromycetes Fusarium oxysporum var. cubense (IMI 326069, UAMH 9013) and Colletotrichum musae (IMI 374528, UAMH 8929) had not been examined previously for this potential. In general, F. oxysporum var. cubense effected 7α hydroxylation on 3β-hydroxy-Δ 5 -steroids, 6β, 12β,...
The fungi Exophiala jeanselmei var. lecanii-corni [IMI (International Mycological Institute) 312989, UAMH (University of Alberta Microfungus Collection and Herbarium) 8783] and Ceratocystis paradoxa (IMI 374529, UAMH 8784) have been examined for their potential in steroid biotransformation. The study has determined that E. jeanselmei var. lecanii-corni effected overall anti-Markovnikov hydration on...
