Echinocandin B is a naturally occurring antibiotic, isolated from Aspergillus nidulans. It acts as an inhibitor of fungal β-1,3-glucan synthase thereby disrupting the formation of the fungal cell wall. The drug itself was not developed in the clinic, but instead, it was used in the production of other echinocandin derivatives.

B-Trisaccharide belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acyl glycosides of mono- and disaccharides. B-Trisaccharide in blood group B is excreted when an individual is given Galactose. The B-trisaccharide was the only oligosaccharide detected in plasma after galactose administration to a blood-group-B secretor individual. The structure of the branched blood group B trisaccharide alone has been studied both by X-ray crystallography and by NMR.

Quinoline, an alkaloid from various plant species, is a flavouring ingredient. It’s used mainly as an intermediate in the manufacture of other products. Quinoline is considered as one of the most toxic and carcinogenic compounds and is commonly found in industrial wastewaters, which require treatment before being discharged.
