A coumarin compound has been isolated from acetone fraction of Ageratum leaves (Ageratum conyzoides L.) and chemical structure has been elucidated based on UV, IR, NMR and mass spectra. This compound showed an antifungal activity against the plant pathogenic fungi, Aspergillus niger. A. niger is a fungus and one of the most common species of the genus Aspergillus. It causes black mold on certain fruits and vegetables such as grape, onion and peanuts and is a common contaminant of food. The coumarin was tested for its antifungal activity against A. niger by disk diffusion method. The MIC values of coumarin was 62.5 μg mL-1. © 2008 Asian Network for Scientific Information.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Acetone fraction,Ageratum leaves,Antifungal activity,Aspergillus niger,Coumarin[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.3923/ijp.2008.56.59[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
