Abstract

The active metabolites producing endophytic fungus, Fusarium sp., was isolated from Eichhornia crassipes Linn. yielded four compounds: “altersolanol (1)”, “4-hydroxydihydronorjavanicin (2)”, “5-hydroxy-7-methoxy-2-isopropylchromone (3)” and “fusaraichromenone (4)”. Structures of 1-4 were elucidated by analysis of their spectroscopic data. The antimicrobial activity was tested by using four bacteria; methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA SK1), Staphylococcus aureus (SA), Escherichia coli (EC) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853 (PA)and two yeast; Cryptococcus neoformans ATCC90112 flucytosine – resistant (CN90112) and Candida albicans ATCC 90028 (CA90028) to adverse effect showed that compound 1 and 3 had moderate antibacterial activity against MRSA, SA, PA and SK1 with same MIC value 16 μg/mL. However, all pure compounds showed relatively low activities to inhibit the growth of CA90028 and CN91112 yeast.
