Application Notes
Diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) is a small molecular weight, phenolic metabolite belonging to the phloroglucinol
(1,3,5- trihydroxybenzene) family produced by bacteria, including Pseudomonas strains. DAPG exhibits a broad
range of biological activities, albeit with mostly low potency. In the search for novel actives, DAPG and related
metabolites are important for dereplication to eliminate leads due to high amounts of weakly potent actives. Although
weakly active, this family appears to be important in the biocontrol of plant diseases by some Pseudomonas strains.
