Marine source plays an important role in the form of pharmaceutical care and for the discovery of new molecular structures (i.e. targets). Marine organisms are a source of new therapeutics, especially for oncology, as a tremendous... more
This review article presents our group's recent research findings with regard to bioactive natural products from marine sponges and tunicates, as well as from sponge derived fungi. The organisms discussed originate in the Indopacific... more
For the yeast population and diversity, marine habitats are the least explored niches and the lack of validated database is considered to be a drawback for yeast research. The aim of the present study is to create a comprehensive DNA... more
With the over 2000 marine fungi and fungal-like organisms documented so far, some have adapted fully to life in the sea, while some have the ability to tolerate environmental conditions in the marine milieu. These organisms have evolved... more
Tarballs are formed by weathering of crude oil in marine environment. They are transported from open ocean to the shores by sea currents and waves. Tarball pollution is a major concern to global marine ecosystem. Microbes such as bacteria... more
Fungi are a prolific source of bioactive molecules. During the past few decades, many bioactive natural products have been isolated from marine fungi. Chile is a country with 6435 Km of coastline along the Pacific Ocean and houses a... more
Human-made hydrocarbon-rich environments are important reservoirs of microorganisms with specific degrading abilities and pathogenic potential. In particular, black fungi are of great interest, but their presence in the environment is... more
Malaria caused by Plasmodium parasites is amongst many prevalent public health concerns in several tropical regions of the world. Nowadays, the parasite resistance patterns to most currently used drugs in therapy and insecticides have... more
Hasil penelitian diperoleh yaitu isolat bakteri simbion NF1 dan NF2 merupakan spesies Pseudomonas aeroginosa dan Isolat NF3 merupakan spesies bakteri Enterobacter cloacae. Ketiga isolat tersebut diketahui tidak mampu menghasilkan senyawa... more
Test on cytotoxic activity of marine fungi from Nipah waters have been conducted. Each solate was cultured on malt extract liquid for 15 days, and extracted by using ethyl acetate to both pellet and supernatant. Brine Shrimp Lethality... more
Endophytic fungi have currently been acknowledged, as the most promising source of bioactive compounds for drug discovery and considerable progress has been made in exploring their diversity, species richness, and bioprospecting. Fungal... more
Corals host diverse microbial communities that are involved in acclimatization, pathogen defense, and nutrient cycling. Surveys of coral-associated microbes have been particularly directed toward and bacteria. However, a holistic... more
An organic extract was prepared from the culture medium and mycelia of the marine fungus Aspergillus stromatoides Raper & Fennell. The extract was fractionated via column chromatography, and the resulting fractions were tested for their... more
Very little is known about chemical interactions between fungi and their mollusc host within marine environments. Here, we investigated the metabolome of a Penicillium restrictum MMS417 strain isolated from the blue mussel Mytilus edulis... more
This is a first report on diversity of the micromycetes associated with living thalli of the edible red algae Palmaria palmata (dulse). Samples were collected in the Kandalaksha Gulf of the White Sea at upper (10 thalli in the littoral... more
The comprehension of microbial interactions is one of the key challenges in marine microbial ecology. This study focused on exploring chemical interactions between the toxic dinoflagellate Prorocentrum lima and a filamentous fungal... more
With the advancement of molecular biology, genetic engineering, and bioinformatics tools, the bioprospecting of bioactive compounds gained importance in various industries. The majority of the drugs in the market are derived from natural... more
Numerous countries have been confronted with infectious diseases in mariculture activities, including fungi infections, although reports in scallops are scarce. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the occurrence of filamentous fungi in... more
Aim: To identify endophytic fungi of tropical macroalgae and analyse variation in antibacterial activity. Methodology: Endophytic fungi were aseptically isolated from macroalgae tissue, identified by macroscopic and microscopic... more
