A Detection Method for Crop Fungal Spores Based on Microfluidic Separation Enrichment and AC Impedance Characteristics [PDF]

Journal of Fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 2022
The timely monitoring of airborne crop fungal spores is important for maintaining food security. In this study, a method based on microfluidic separation and enrichment and AC impedance characteristics was proposed to detect spores of fungal pathogens ...

Detection of Rice Fungal Spores Based on Micro- Hyperspectral and Microfluidic Techniques [PDF]

Biosensors, 2023
As rice is one of the world’s most important food crops, protecting it from fungal diseases is very important for agricultural production. At present, it is difficult to diagnose rice fungal diseases at an early stage using relevant technologies, and ...

Fungi: friends or foes—an outreach science initiative for the collection of airborne fungal spores by high school students [PDF]

Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education
Fungi mostly reproduce through spores that are adapted for airborne dispersal; hence, fungal spores (and fungi) are found virtually everywhere. Fungi can be “friends or foes.” Our friends include fungi used in the food and biotech industries, fungi that ...

Asthma and the Diversity of Fungal Spores in Air

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
The diversity of fungal spores in air is vast ([1], [2], Figure 1), but research on asthma focuses on a handful of easily identified, culturable species. Ecologists are developing new tools to probe communities and identify the full complement of fungi in habitats.

Demulsification of crude oil-in-water emulsions by means of fungal spores. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The present feature describes for the first time the application of spores from Aspergillus sp. IMPMS7 to break out crude oil-in-water emulsions (O/W). The fungal spores were isolated from marine sediments polluted with petroleum hydrocarbons. The spores

First Long-Time Airborne Fungal Spores Study in Dublin, Ireland (1978–1980)

Atmosphere, 2022
Ambient fungal spores within the atmosphere can contribute to a range of negative human, animal and plant health conditions and diseases. However, trends in fungal spore seasonality, species prevalence, and geographical origin have been significantly ...

Photocontrol of Fungal Spore Germination [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1975
Germination of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici uredospores is inhibited by continuous irradiation. Prehydration of spores enhances both dark germination and photoinhibition. Simultaneous irradiation with ineffective red (653 nanometers) and inhibitory far red light (720 nanometers) results in partial nullification of the inhibition brought about by ...

The Survival of Different Fungal Spores During Tabletting

Iraqi Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2017
The survival of dried spores of A.flavus, Penicillia Spp., and Cladosporia Spp.inoculated into multivitamins and folic acid tablets were examined at different compression pressures.Survival of fungal spores decreased with increasing compression pressure.

Airborne fungal spores as a potential hazard for the vineyard workers – a case report from the Carpathian foothills

Acta Agrobotanica, 2023
Fungal spores often cause allergic diseases in people working outdoors, especially in agriculture. In the case of vineyard workers, the threat of mycotoxins is generally considered, and aerobiological monitoring focuses mainly on pathogenic fungi that ...
