title: Polygodial, a potent attachment-inhibiting substance for the blue mussel, Mytilus edulis galloprovincialis from Tasmannia lanceolata.
abstract: A highly potent attachment-inhibitor, polygodial, was isolated from a hexane extract of the leaves of Tasmannia lanceolata. The attachment-inhibiting activity of polygodial against the blue mussel was increased 4-fold when used in combination with sorbic acid, anethole, and indole.
