Abstract

The results of screening for antiprotozoal and antivermal antibiotics in fungi of the genus Penicillium isolated from soil samples from Indonesia are presented. The incidence of cultures with antiprotozoal activity was found to be rather high (60%), substances with antivermal activity were detected in 38% of the cultures studied and antibacterial and/or antifungal activities were present in 53% of the cultures. The results indicate that the Penicillia could be a rich source of antiprotozoal and antivermal substances.
