The research team at the College of Science at the University of Basra, consisting of Assistant Professor Dr. Ferdous Nouri Jaafar and Assistant Professor Dr. Muhammad Latif Ali \ Department of Life Sciences and Professor Dr. Niran Jassim Al Salhi \ Department of Chemistry, obtained a patent to be able to isolate the compound
1-(indolin-3-yl)Propane-1,2,3-triol
Diagnosed for the first time in the world and isolated from the secondary metabolite extract of T.harzianum isolate
Which was recorded for the first time in the world and included in the global gene bank under the name T.harzianum MarinoFaw
A number of advanced techniques were used in the chemical diagnosis of the compound isolated from the fungal extract
A number of life tests were carried out on the diagnosed compound such as the activity against
Bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-cancer, as the compound showed different inhibitory activity against the tested pathogenic bacteria strains.
And it showed high antifungal activity against a number of yeasts and fungi isolated from various fungal infections.
The effectiveness of the compound was also tested against Hela cell line cervical cancer cells and it was found that it has activity against the cells
carcinomas at a concentration of 62.5 mcg/mL and higher concentrations.
