Biological Activities of Ethanolic Extracts from Deep-Sea Antarctic Marine Sponges
Abstract: We report on the screening of ethanolic extracts from 33 deep-sea Antarctic marine sponges for different biological activities. We monitored hemolysis, inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, cytotoxicity towards normal and transformed cells and growth inhibition of laboratory, commensal and c...
