The antimicrobial activity of five compounds extracted from marine algae was tested against Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella choleraesuis, Mycobacterium smegmatis, Candida albicans, and Escherichia coli. Three of the compounds, cycloeudesmol, laurinterol, and debromolaurinterol, exhibited activity at concentrations approaching that of streptomycin. None of the compounds inhibited all of the organisms tested. There appeared to be selectivity for gram-positive microbes.
测试了从海藻中提取的五种化合物对金黄色葡萄球菌、猪霍乱沙门氏菌、耻垢分枝杆菌、白色念珠菌和大肠杆菌的抗菌活性。其中三种化合物,环桉醇、月桂萜醇和去溴月桂萜醇,在接近链霉素的浓度下表现出活性。没有一种化合物能抑制所有测试的微生物。对革兰氏阳性微生物似乎有选择性。
