Phospholipids of Trichophyton rubrum.
S.K. Das,A.B. Banerjee +1 more
TLDR
Trichophyton rubrum grown in Sabouraud's liquid medium contains phosphatidyl inositol, polyphosphatids inositols, and the relative proportion of these components in total phospholipid fraction remains almost constant throughout the culture life of this fungus.Abstract:
Trichophyton rubrum grown in Sabouraud's liquid medium contains phosphatidyl inositol, polyphosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl ethanolamine phosphatidyl glycerol and phosphatidic acid in the polar lipid fraction of its mycelia. The relative proportion of these components in total phospholipid fraction remains almost constant throughout the culture life of this fungus.read more

Inhibition of Candida rugosa lipase by berberine and structurally related alkaloids, evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography.
Eleonora Grippa,Roberto Valla,Lucia Battinelli,Gabriela Mazzanti,Luciano Saso,Bruno Silvestrini +5 more
TL;DR: Berberine and a number of structurally related alkaloids such as chelidonine, chelerythrine, and sanguinarine appeared active and were of interest because they are used in pathological conditions in which microbial lipases could play a pathogenic role.

Effect of undecanoic acid on phospholipid metabolism in Trichophyton rubrum
S.K. Das,A.B. Banerjee +1 more
TL;DR: At its minimum inhibitory concentration, undecanoic acid (UDA) inhibits biosynthesis of phosphatidyl serine, phosph atidyl ethanolamine and polyphosphoinositol but does not inhibit the synthesis of phosphatin, so it may be partially responsible for its toxic action on Trichophyton rubrum.

Phospholipid turnover in Trichophyton rubrum
S.K. Das,A.B. Banerjee +1 more
TL;DR: Phospholipid synthesis, interconversion and breakdown in T. rubrum were followed by radioactive tracer, and their conversions to phosphatidyl choline and phosph atidyl inositol are suspected.

Lipid composition of Microsporum gypseum.
TL;DR: The lipid composition ofMicrosporum gypseum has been studied and neutral lipids consisted of monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides, free and esterified cholesterol.

Phosphoglycerides of Trichophyton terrestre and One Phenotype Selected from the Apollo 16 Microbial Ecology Evaluation Device
TL;DR: The Trichophyton phenotype was selected from a cuvette housed in the MEED exposed to specific space parameters including ultraviolet light of known wavelengths and energy levels in deep space and an unusual lipid was detected in the phenotype, which appeared to be sterol glycoside.

A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

The separation of complex lipide mixtures by the use of silicic acid chromatography.
Jules Hirsch,E. H. Ahrens +1 more
TL;DR: Information obtained from this study and from previous investigations of the properties of silicic acid were used to elaborate a standardized method for the separation of lipide groups based on adsorption chromatography with silicIC acid.

Amino Acids and Derivatives
TL;DR: The authors showed that free amino acids and peptides are markedly hydrophilic compounds, only slightly soluble in nonaqueous solvents, and this must be borne in mind when sampling and preparing materials for TLC as well as when choosing the solvent.

The Free Sterols of Dermatophytes
F. Blank,F. E. Shortland,G. Just +2 more
TL;DR: Oil ether extracts of 14 species of the dermatophytes, representing one group of closely related filamentous fungi, were examined for the presence of free sterols in continuation of investigations on the chemical constituents of pathogenic fungi.
