2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)ethan-1-ol (3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)indole) is a metabolite formed in the liver after disulfiram treatment that induces sleep in humans. It is also a secondary product of alcoholic fermentation.

Vanillin (Zimco) is a single molecule extracted from vanilla beans and also a popular odor used widely in perfume, food and medicine.Vanillin can reversibly and non-competitively inhibit the cellulase activity at appropriate concentrations and the value of IC50 was estimated to be 30 g L.Vanillin protects KSC from UVB irradiation and its effects may occur through the suppression of downstream step of MDM2 in UVB irradiation-induced p53 activation. Vanillin also inhibits yeast growth and fermentation.

2,3-Pentanedione is a food additive that also occurs naturally as a fermentation product in beer, wine and yogurt and is released during the roasting of coffee beans. Inhalation of 2,3-Pentanedione is thought to be the cause of severe respiratory disease in humans, including occlusive bronchitis.

Carmoisine (Azo Rubine) is a food dye Azorubine and is used for the purposes where food is heat-treated after fermentation.

N-acetyltyramine is a metabolite of the biogenic amine tyramine . It enhances cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in resistant P388 murine leukemia cells with an IC50 value of 0.13 μg ml compared with an IC50 value of 0.48 μg ml for doxorubicin alone.

D-(-)-Lactic acid is a normal intermediate in sugar fermentation (oxidation, metabolism). It is identified as a competitive inhibitor of ProDH (proline dehydrogenase) in plants.

Viridicatol, with potent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus(MIC: 15.6 μg mL), is isolated from the fermentation of an endophytic fungus Penicillium sp. R22 in Nerium indicum.

L-Alanosine, an antibiotic isolated from the fermentation product of Streptomyces alanosinicus, inhibits tumor cell proliferation by blocking the adenylosuccinate synthetic pathway through the inhibition of adenylosuccinate synthetase and Methylthioadenosine phosphorylase.

DL-Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (3-Phosphoglyceraldehyde) is an important intermediate in glycogen or starch fermentation in organisms and inhibits acyltransferases. DL-Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate inhibits the growth of Escherichia coli at high concentrations.

Aquastatin A is a fungal metabolite originally isolated fromF. aquaeductuumthat has diverse biological activities.1It is active againstS. aureus(MIC = 32 μg/ml) and inhibits enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (Fabl; IC50= 3.2 μM) andS. aureusfatty acid synthesis (IC50= 3.5 μM).2Aquastatin A also inhibits the Na+/K+-ATPase and H+/K+-ATPase (IC50s = 7.1 and 6.2 μM, respectively), as well as protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B; IC50= 0.19 μM).1,3 1.Hamano, K., Kinoshita-Okami, M., Minagawa, K., et al.Aquastatin A, an inhibitor of mammalian adenosine triphosphatases from Fusarium aquaeductuum.

Agrochelin, an alkaloid cytotoxic antibiotic, is synthesized via fermentation of a marine Agrobacterium sp. This compound demonstrates cytotoxic activity against tumor cell lines.

Diacetyl Agrochelin, an acetyl derivative of Agrochelin, is a compound synthesized through the fermentation of marine Agrobacterium sp. It possesses cytotoxic properties against tumor cell lines.

Monensin B is a polyketide compound derived from the bacterium Streptomyces cinnamonensis. Its production involves the fermentation of Streptomyces cinnamonensis, resulting in a mixture of Monensin A and Monensin B. The ratio of these two compounds depends on the concentrations of ethylmalonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA.
