Abstract :
The present study involved the isolation and structural elucidation of the active constituent of gastropod, Drupa margariticola extract using different Chromatographic techniques and various tools of spectral analysis. The acetone phase of the D. margariticola showed promising activity indicating the presence of active fractions. The active compound, diterpenoid acylglycerol which has been isolated from the gastropod, Drupa margarüicola exhibited broad spectral activity against Salmonella typhimurium, Vibrio cholerae, Bacillus subtilis, with inhibitory zones of 8 mm, 8 and 8 mm, respectively at a concentration of 50μg.
