Merulidial (Compound 1) is an antibiotic and cytotoxic agent with a sesquiterpene dialdehyde structure. Merulidial significantly inhibits the germination of spores and the hyphal growth of the wood-roting basidiomycete Heterobasidion annosum (H. annosum) and the saprophytic mould Cladosporium cucumerinum (C.cucumerinum). Merulidial also inhibits a variety of bacteria, algae and DNA synthesis of ECA cells. Merulidial shows a strong anticancer activity with IC50 s of 20 and 10 µg/mL for ECA and L1210 cells, respectively [1][2][3].
