Abstract
A selection of steroids, glycerides, clerodane diterpenoids, and a β-hydroxy fatty acid methyl ester, all previously isolated from Ajuga pseudoiva leaves, were tested for their antibacterial activity toward three Gram− rods and one Gram+ coccus using the dilution method; MIC values were determined. The results suggested some importance for a free β-hydroxy group in the fatty acid ester and also in the glycerides and clerodane derivatives; the absolute configurations of the latter, notably at C2, had little influence on activity.
