摘要
The binaphthoquinoid, diospyrin, was isolated from Euclea natalensis A.DC., and evaluated for its activity against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of diospyrin was found to be 100 mug/ml for all the M. tuberculosis strains. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
