Penicillium melinii is an anamorph species of the genus of Penicillium which produces griseofulvin and beta-Nitropropionic acid. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

<i>Penicillium</i> genus of fungi

Penicillium ascomycetous fungi are of major importance in the natural environment as well as food and drug production.

Griseofulvin chemical compound

Griseofulvin is an antifungal medication used to treat a number of types of dermatophytoses (ringworm). This includes fungal infections of the nails and scalp, as well as the skin when antifungal creams have not worked. It is taken by mouth.

<i>beta</i>-Nitropropionic acid chemical compound

beta-Nitropropionic acid is a mycotoxin, a potent mitochondrial inhibitor, toxic to humans. It is produced by a number of fungi, and found widely in food, in sugar cane, as well as Japanese fungally fermented staples miso, soy sauce, katsuobushi, and some traditional Chinese medicines.

Digital object identifier Character string used as a permanent identifier for a digital object, in a format controlled by the International DOI Foundation

In computing, a Digital Object Identifier or DOI is a persistent identifier or handle used to identify objects uniquely, standardized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). An implementation of the Handle System, DOIs are in wide use mainly to identify academic, professional, and government information, such as journal articles, research reports and data sets, and official publications though they also have been used to identify other types of information resources, such as commercial videos.
