Biodegradable Coatings with Essential Oils for Combating Papaya Anthracnose: State of the Art and Perspectives

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Papaya (Carica papaya L.) production and marketability are strongly constrained by postharvest diseases, with anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. representing the most significant threat. Traditional control relies on synthetic fungicides, which, although effective, face challenges such as the development of pathogen resistance ...

Antioxidant and Cytotoxic Properties of Piper spp. Volatile Oils That Inhibit Pathogenic Microorganisms

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
The samples were fungicidal against Candida, with MICs ranging from 62.5 to 250 μg/mL, and fungistatic against Penicillium adametzii, Aspergillus flavus and A. niger, with MICs of 1000 μg/mL. The volatile oils of Piper aduncum and Piper marginatum reduced the viability of MDA‐MB231 cells.

Hydrocortisone-enhanced growth of Aspergillus spp.: implications for pathogenesis [PDF]

Microbiology, 1994
Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus are the most common cause of invasive mould infections worldwide and carry a high mortality. Corticosteroid therapy and Cushing's disease are associated with an increase in invasive aspergillosis. Corticosteroids impair immune function in mammals and, specifically, the conidicidal activity of human ...
