The crude extract of Aspergillusfumigatus isolate AF3-093A, an endophyte of the brown alga Fucus vesiculosus, showed significant antimicrobial activity in initial bioactivity screens. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract led to the isolation of flavipin, chaetoglobosin A and chaetoglobosin B, all of which inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant S. aureus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra. The antimycobacterial activity of these compounds has not been previously reported.
