Product Data:
Biological target: Quinolactin A inhibits TNF production induced by LPS in murine peritoneal macrophages (IC50 = 12.2 μg/mL). It is not active against a variety of bacteria, fungi, and yeasts.
In vitro activity: Quinolactacin A was found from the cultured broth of a fungal strain isolated from the larvae of Margaronia pyloalis. Quinolactacin A showed inhibitory activity against tumor necrosis factor production induced by murine peritoneal macrophages and macrophage-like J774.1 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. Reference: J Antibiot (Tokyo). 2000 Nov;53(11):1247-51. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11213284/
In vivo activity: Almond production in Portugal is of great importance for their economy. However, the contamination of these nut fruits with fungi and mycotoxins poses a significant risk to food safety and security. After 9 months of storage at 70% and 60% relative humidity, penicillium mycotoxins, such as quinolactacin A, were detected. Storing almonds at 60% relative humidity and 25°C is sufficient to maintain almond stability and safety from microbial and mycotoxin contaminations, such as quinolactacin A.
