Hydroxylation of dehydroabietic acid by Fusarium species

Phytochemistry. 1997 Sep;46(1):131-3. doi: 10.1016/s0031-9422(97)00207-0.

Abstract

A novel compound, 1 beta-hydroxydehydroabietic acid has been obtained by the microbial transformation of dehydroabietic acid, using cultures of Fusarium oxysporum and F. moniliforme. Its antibacterial activity was also tested.
