largely been superseded by the ergosterol assay in recent years. 4.7.2 Ergosterol Ergosterol is the major sterol produced by fungi, but at most is a minor component of plant sterols (Weete, 1974). Ergosterol occurs as a component of fungal ...

Sinsabaugh (1993) may be due as much to an inadequate freeze-drying process as to the high sensitivity of ergosterol to ultraviolet light (Newell et al. 1988). The ratios of ergosterol/sistosterol have been proposed as a more appropriate ...

Biotechnology of Vitamins, Pigments and Growth Factors - Strona 83
We now know that irradiation may lead to two types of vitamin D: (1) By irradiation of ergosterol, ergocalciferol (or D2) is formed while (2) irradiation of 7-dehydrocholesterol leads to the production of cholecalciferol (or D3), see Fig. 1.

Mechanisms of Action Most of the antifungal drugs in clinical use, with the exception of 5-flucytosine (5FC) and caspofungin, are targeted to the ergosterol pathway or ergosterol in the plasma membrane. Ergosterol is the major, bulk sterol in ...
