Abstract

80 methanolic extracts from sponges of Indonesia and Oman were screened for antifungal activity against ten strains fungi: Botrytis cinerea, Cladosporium cucumerinum, Fusarium oxysporum, Penicillium expansum, Rhizopus oryzae, Trichoderma harzianum, Aspergillus niger, Mucor pusillus, Absidia corymbifera and Absidia ramosa. The bromopyrrolic alkaloids hymenidin and sceptrin isolated from the sponges Agelas dispar and Agelas conifera, respectively, were also tested against the above fungi.
