Biological Activities of Talaromyces Purpurogenus T013

Abstract

In the study, Talaromyces purpurogenus T013, a filamentous fungi belonging to Talaromyces which was identified had been isolated from the high value Taxus baccata subsp. wallichiana. In order to find out a new source of antimicrobial and anticancer agents, T. purpurogenus cultured in YM was against five different kinds of pathogens including Salmonella typhi (16.77±0.21 mm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16.17±0.21 mm), Serratia marcescens (15.50±0.21 mm), Listeria monocytogenes (16.37±0.15 mm) and Vibrio parahaemolyticus (15.43±0.21 mm) by using the agar well diffusion method. There was cytotoxic ability on Hela cancer cell line at the concentration (100 mg/mL) by using sulforhodamin B assay. The chloroform fraction showed antimicrobial activities that suggested the purified agent with antimicrobial in this fraction will be obtained so far.
