New triterpenoids from the red sea sponge Siphonochalina siphonella
Kashman,Yosief,Carmeli
, p. 175 - 180 (2001)
Clear differences were found when comparing the chemical content of the northern, Gulf of Eilat, to the southern-central, Dahlak archipelago, Red Sea sponge Siphonochalina siphonella. The Dahlak sponge was found to be richer in the more polar triterpenes. Nine new compounds (1-4, 7, 8, 15-17) were isolated and identified, among them two sipholane glycosides, sipholenoside A and B (7 and 8), and one compound, dahabinone A (17), possessing a new skeleton.

An exopolysaccharide (EPS) was purified from the probiotic bacterium Bacillus albus DM-15, isolated from the Indian Ayurvedic traditional medicine Dasamoolarishta. Gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses revealed the heteropolymeric nature of the purified EPS with monosaccharide units of glucose, galactose, xylose, and rhamnose. Size-exclusion chromatography had shown the molecular weight of the purified EPS as around 240 kDa. X-ray powder diffraction analysis confirmed the non-crystalline amorphous nature of the EPS. Furthermore, the purified EPS showed the maximum flocculation activity (72.80%) with kaolin clay and emulsification activity (67.04%) with xylene. In addition, the EPS exhibits significant antioxidant activities on DPPH (58.17 ± 0.054%), ABTS (70.47 ± 0.854%) and nitric oxide (58.92 ± 0.744%) radicals in a concentration-dependent way. Moreover, the EPS showed promising cytotoxic activity (20 ± 0.97 μg mL–1) against the lung carcinoma cells (A549), and subsequent cellular staining revealed apoptotic necrotic characters in damaged A549 cells. The EPS purified from the probiotic strain B. albus DM-15 can be further studied and exploited as a potential carbohydrate polymer in food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and biomedical applications.
