title: Chromatographic screening of growth inhibitors for Cladosporium herbarum in the extracts of calcareous red algae.
abstract: The thin-layer chromatographic screening of growth inhibitors for an imperfect fungus was carried out in two types of calcareous red algae, Corallina pilulifera (Corallinaceae) and Lithothamnium pacificum (Corallinaceae) and Crathromorchum circumscriptum (Corallinaceae). Several substances having positive activities on Cladosporium herbarum were detected in the alcoholic extracts of the marine plants. The observed differences among the substances can be attributed to the morphological characteristics of the sea weeds.
