Abstract

Clavariopsins were isolated from the fermentation broth of Clavariopsis aquatica AJ 117363. Clavariopsins are cyclic depsipeptide Antibiotics with the molecular weight of 1,153 and 1,139. Clavariopsins showed in vitro Antifungal activity against not only Aspergillus fumigatus but also, although to a lesser extent, A. niger and Candida albicans.
