Fungal bioremediation of diuron-contaminated waters: evaluation of its degradation and the effect of amendable factors on its removal in a trickle-bed reactor under non-sterile conditions [PDF]
The occurrence of the extensively used herbicide diuron in the environment poses a severe threat to the ecosystem and human health. Four different ligninolytic fungi were studied as biodegradation candidates for the removal of diuron. Among them, T. versicolor was the most effective species, degrading rapidly not only diuron (83%) but also the major ...

Fungicidal activity plus reservoir effect allow short treatment courses with terbinafine in tinea pedis [PDF]
Terbinafine, a synthetic allylamine, exerts fungicidal activity against dermatophytes, the causative pathogens of tinea pedis. As proven in numerous clinical trials, tinea pedis can be effectively and safely treated by topical terbinafine.

Remediation of bentazone contaminated water by Trametes versicolor: characterization, identification of transformation products, and implementation in a trickle-bed reactor under non-sterile conditions [PDF]
Bentazone, an herbicide widely applied in rice and cereal crops, is widespread in the aquatic environment. This study evaluated the capacity of Trametes versicolor to remove bentazone from water. The fungus was able to completely remove bentazone after three days at Erlenmeyer-scale incubation.
