Application Notes

Elsinochrome A is a red photosensitive pigment produced by Aspergillus sp. and other fungi, including the bindweed biocontrol fungus Stagonospora convolvuli LA39 an important virulence factor for peanut scab. Elsinochrome A is effective against pine wood nematodes at 15 µg/mL, with effectiveness enhanced by infrared irradiation. Photoactivated elsinochrome A induces apoptosis in human colorectal carcinoma Hce-​8693 at 10-​5 – 10-6 M.
