Identification of sesquiterpene aldehydes as volatile antifungal compounds in Phaeolepiota aurea culture filtrate.
Biosci Biotechnol Biochem
November 2024
Article Synopsis
- The culture filtrate extract of the golden bootleg mushroom showed strong antifungal effects, leading to the isolation of two new sesquiterpenoid compounds, with respective molecular weights of 234 and 259.
- Mass spectrometry confirmed these compounds, named phaeolep aldehydes A and B, featured an aldehyde group, with phaeolep aldehyde B also having a cyanohydrin group.
- Phaeolep aldehyde A inhibited the growth of several fungi at a dosage of 10 ppm, while phaeolep aldehyde B showed even stronger activity, reducing spore germination of one fungal species by 58.2% at just 0.25 ppm.
