Isolation and identification of orsellinic acid and penicillic acid produced by Penicillium fennelliae Stolk

Abstract

Fifteen days-old surface cultures of Penicillium fennelliae Stolk grown on a modified Czapek medium were analyzed for the production of metabolites. The presence of orsellinic acid, orcinol and penicillic acid was proved by means of chromatographic and physicochemical methods. © 1969 Swets & Zeitlinger.
