Microbial transformation of steroid / Balqis Haya Ismail

Microbial transformation by endophytes was studied since centuries ago. This phenomenon allows a compound to be modified into another compound by using green synthesis instead of chemical synthesis. In this study, Mesterolone as the substrate undergoes fermentation with identified Aspergillus SSW...
