The genus exhibits a variety of pharmacological, antibacterial and antioxidant effects. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant potential and antibacterial properties of the ethyl acetate fraction of leaves. Isolation and identification of the phenolic compounds from the fraction was also carried out.

The genus exhibits a variety of pharmacological, antimicrobial and antioxidant effects. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant potential and antimicrobial properties of the ethyl acetate fraction of leaves.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFNatural products, especially plants, have been investigated as sources of new substances with antimicrobial properties. In this context, the genus is extensively researched for presenting such activities. This work aims to evaluate the antifungal, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties of extracts and fractions of stems of , also to characterize two phenolic compounds.

- Various factors like temperature, pH, and culture medium influence the growth of fungi and the production of important compounds.
- Studies on the metabolites produced by specific fungi are limited, although they have potential for biotechnological use.
- The highest growth of mycelial mass from a certain fungus occurred at 24°C using potato dextrose and malt extract media, and the disaccharide α-α-trehalose was newly identified in this genus through X-ray diffraction analysis.
Article Synopsis
- Diplodia pinea was tested for its ability to inhibit the growth of several fungi, including Armillaria sp. and Botrytis cinerea, using a method where two fungi strains are grown together.
- The study found that D. pinea significantly inhibited the growth of all tested fungi, showing a range of 30.75% to 98.37% inhibition and a moderate antagonist activity index of 14.5.
- Chemical analysis identified certain compounds in D. pinea, such as steroids and phenolic compounds, which likely contribute to its ability to compete for resources with other fungi.
