Ethyl p-methoxycinnamate (EPMC), a major constituent of the Kaempferia galanga rhizome, was transformed to ethyl p-hydroxycinnamate (EPHC) using Aspergillus niger. The EPHC metabolite was elucidated by NMR spectroscopic technique. Antimicrobial microbial study found that EPHC was active against all strains tested with a good minimum inhibitory conc
