Abstract
During screening of seaweeds from different places in Europe for antimicrobial activities against human and fish pathogenic bacteria, Laurencia chondrioides was identified as a promising species. By bioassay‐guided isolation, followed by structure elucidation by mass spectrometry and 1H‐ and 13C‐NMR spectrometry, two sesquiterpenoides of the chamigrene‐type from the selected red seaweed Laurencia chondrioides were identified. Both compounds inhibit the growth of some fish and human pathogenic bacteria.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
