The article presents a study which discusses the bioactive components of wet marine sponges Axinella, which belongs to the family of Axinellidae. It states that Axinella was found to consist six chemical compounds which were determined using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It adds that the ecological origin and secondary metabolites of Axinella are anticipated to be useful for further chemotaxonomic research about marine sponges.
