title: Brominated unsaturated fatty acids from marine sponge collected in Papua New Guinea.
abstract: New brominated fatty acids (3, 5-8, 10) and new sterol esters (14-16) have been isolated from an unidentified marine sponge collected in Papua New Guinea. Their structures were determined on the basis of their spectroscopic data. A major component of the marine sponge (1) was tested for activities against Arutemia salina and some fungi.
