Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The ciliostatic activity of exo- and endometabolites of 243 filamentous fungal strains was evaluated by in vitro bioassay using tracheal organ cultures of 1-d-old chicks. Chloroform-extractable metabolites produced in the cultivation medium (25 degrees C/10 d) by 30 out of 72 (41%) investigated strains displayed the ciliostatic activity as did metabolites from the biomass of the spores and the mycelium of 46 other strains (26%). This result could contribute to the clarification of the correlation between fungi and respiratory disorders in some working places and in damp dwellings.
