Mechanism of Polyhexamethylene Biguanide Resistance in Purpureocillium lilacinum Strains.
Biocontrol science, 2022 Purpureocillium lilacinum has been recently found to contaminate a 20% (200,000 μg/mL) aqueous solution of polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride (PHMB) . We aimed to elucidate the mechanism underlying the resistance of P. lilacinum to PHMB. First, we induced the PHMB-resistant (IR) strains IFM 67050 (IR) and IFM 65838 (IR) from the type strain P ...
