Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAntifungal Activity of Jatropha Curcas Linn on Candida Albicans and Candida Tropicalis Associated with Neonatal and Infantile Infections in Yola, NigeriaJames Hamuel Doughari, Martha AbrahamOne hundred and eighty (180) stool samples collected of neonates and infants from three selected health facilities in Yola, Adamawa State Nigeria. The samples were subjected to both microscopic, biochemical test and cultural identification. Bromocresol green agar and Germ tube test was used to identify Candida species. Culture of the stool samples on SDA yielded 32 yeast cells with Candida … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 7 Sep 2021 · 7,533 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAntifungal Potential of Leptadenia Hastata Against Some Pathogenic FungiIsaac John Umaru, Fasihuddin A. Badruddin, Henry Y. Wakawa et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate if the plant extract could provide antifungal potential against some pathogenic fungi. Extract of Dichloromethane solvents was used for disc diffusion assay. The inhibitory concentration of the extract was performed by broth dilution method and zone of inhibition was studied by disc diffusion method at the concentration of 25, 50, 100, 250, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2018 · 10,158 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Production of Two New Nonpolyenic Antifungal Macrolide Derivatives by Streptomyces Z26 Isolated from Moroccan Rhizospheric SoilAhmed Nafis, Brahim Oubaha, Najoua Elhidar et al.The aim of our study was to screen Moroccan actinomycete isolates able to produce nonpolyenic antifungal metabolites in order to contribute to limiting the problem of fungal infections emergence in particular mycotic diseases and to discover known antifungal families, especially nonpolyenic drugs. 480 isolates were tested against 5clinically pathogenic Candida species. Several methods have been used to study the polyenic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 8 Mar 2018 · 8,459 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExocellular (1→6)-β-D-Glucan (Lasiodiplodan): Carboxymethylation, Thermal Behavior, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial ActivityThais Vanessa Theis, Gabrielle Cristina Calegari, Vidiany Aparecida Queiroz Santos et al.β-Glucans are biomacromolecules of industrial interest for its biological and technological properties, including ability to modify the rheology of food systems and different biological functionalities. In this study, lasiodiplodan an exocellular polysaccharide of the (1→6)-β-D-glucan type produced by the fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromae MMPI was obtained in a bench-scale bioreactor operated in discontinuous mode. Lasiodiplodan produced was derivatized by carboxymethylation and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2017 · 8,326 accessesView PDF Cite
