Screening <strong>for</strong> in-vitro antifungal activities of some indole alkaloids<br />
1995<br />
Planta Medica<br />
61(5): 475-477<br />
Abstract<br />
Several indole alkaloids were tested by <strong>the</strong> agar dilution technique on a panel of human pathogenic<br />
fungi, yeasts, and dermatophytes. Our results indicate that <strong>the</strong> most active compounds possess a betacarboline<br />
skeleton and that <strong>the</strong> presence of a 3-4 double bond enhances <strong>the</strong> activity. Our results also<br />
show that antifungal activities are not Linked to <strong>the</strong> cytotoxic, antimicrobial or antiparasitic<br />

Guianensine, a zwitterionic alkaloid from <strong>Strychnos</strong> guianensis<br />
1995<br />
Phytochemistry<br />
40(5): 1557-1560<br />
Abstract<br />
The isolation and structural determination of an alkaloid isolated from <strong>the</strong> stem bark of <strong>Strychnos</strong><br />
guianensis is described. Elucidation of its structure is based mainly on 1D and 2D NMR studies. The<br />
new alkaloid has a zwitterionic asymmetrical bis-indole structure and is named guianensine.<br />

Notes on <strong>the</strong> dacine fruit-flies (Diptera, Tephritidae) of Andaman and Nicobar Isla<br />
1995<br />
Raffles Bulletin of Zoology<br />
43(1): 235-238<br />
Abstract<br />
A survey of <strong>the</strong> fruit fly fauna in <strong>the</strong> Andaman and Nicobar islands revealed 11 species belonging to<br />
<strong>the</strong> genus Bactrocera. Three species reared, one each from Spondias pinnata (L. f) Kurz<br />
(Anacardiaceae) and <strong>Strychnos</strong> andamanensis Hill (Loganiaceae), and one from S. andamanensis<br />
and several cucurbits, are probably new to science.
