Transformations of progesterone by basidiomycetes

E C SCHUYTEMA et al. Appl Microbiol. 1963 May.

Abstract

A total of 254 basidiomycete cultures have been examined for their action on progesterone. Of these, 54 showed transformation products by thin-film and gas-liquid chromatography. The major product formed by eight of these organisms acting on progesterone has been isolated and identified.
