Abstract

The presence of alkaloids in 30 species of fungi was investigated following their growth on artificial liquid medium. Screening with 3 alkaloidal precipitating reagents was performed on microbial tissue extracts as well as on extracts obtained from the growth medium. The number of fungal species that demonstrated positive confirmatory alkaloid tests was 12 or 40 percent.
