    Thirty indole alkaloids were tested by the agar dilution technique on a panel of human pathogenic fungi, yeasts and dermatophytes. Our results indicate that the most active compounds possess a beta-carboline skeleton and that the presence of a 3,4 double bond enhances the activity. Our results also show that antifungal activities are not linked to the cytotoxic, antimicrobial or antiparsitic properties

    Of the seven triterpene glycosides present in the leaves of Hedera colchica C. Koch, (ram. Araliaceae) - Colchis ivy, which we have called hederacolchisides, we have previously isolated and characterized the three most polar [i, 2]. In continuation of these investigations, we have succeeded in isolating another three, comparatively nonpolar, compounds present in the total in minor amount - hederacolchisides A', A, and C
