Bioactivity of essential oils in phytopathogenic and post-harvest fungi control
2017
[EN] Commercial thyme and lavender essential oils were analysed by GC/MS. Sixty-six compounds accounting for 98.6¿99.6% of total essential oil were identified. Thymol (52.14 ± 0.21%), followed by pcymene (32.24 ± 0.16%), carvacrol (3.71 ± 0.01%) and ¿-terpinene (3.34 ± 0.02%), were the main compounds in thyme essential oil, while large amounts of oxygenated monoterpenes linalool acetate (37.07 ± 0.24%) and linalool (30.16 ± 0.06%) were found in lavender one. In vitro antifungal activity of the essential oils was evaluated at 200 and 300 ¿g/mL against 10 phytopathogenic and post-harvest fungi, which significantly affect agriculture. Micelial growth inhibition was calculated for each tested f…
Synthesis and structural elucidation of novel antifungal N-(fluorophenyl)piperazinyl benzoxaboroles and their analogues
2019
Abstract Series of novel N-(fluorophenyl)piperazine derivatives of phenylboronic compounds including benzoxaboroles, phenylboronic acids and phenylboronic methyl monoester have been obtained by facile synthetic methods starting from 2-formylphenylboronic acid. Molecular and crystal structures of those novel derivatives have been investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The Bond Valence Vector Model was used to describe strains in the boron coordination sphere. Microbiological activity of novel benzoxaboroles as well as their corresponding acid analogues against: A. niger, A. terreus, P. ochrochloron, C. tenuis and F. dimerum has been evaluated. The presence of heterocyclic b…
Aceites esenciales: productos antimicrobianos y antioxidantes naturales en la industria agroalimentaria
2020
[ES] Los consumidores son conscientes del peligro derivado del uso de antioxidantes y antimicrobianos sintéticos en la industria agroalimentaria, demandando alternativas más seguras y ecológicas. En este estudio, se ha determinado la actividad antioxidante de aceites esenciales comerciales mediante el método DPPH y su efecto antimicrobiano frente a la bacteria Pseudomonas syringae y el hongo fitopatógeno Fusarium oxysporum a través del empleo del método estandarizado de disco. Los aceites esenciales de clavo, ajedrea, canela y orégano, así como carvacrol, mostraron la máxima actividad antioxidante, comparable a antioxidantes establecidos. El aceite esencial de gaulteria fue el más potente i…
Antibacterial and antifungal activities of Otanthus maritimus (L.) Hoffmanns.Link essential oil from Sicily.
2013
The chemical composition of the essential oil obtained from the flowers of Otanthus maritimus L., a perennial plant growing wild in maritime sands in the Mediterranean region, was investigated by GC and GC-MS analyses. Totally 66 were identified. The oil was dominated by the high content of monoterpene compounds, especially oxygenated monoterpenes which accounted for 73.1%. The most abundant components were yomogi alcohol (20.8%), camphor (15.8%), artemisyl acetate (15.3%) and artemisia alcohol (13.7%). The oil was tested against two Gram (+) and six Gram (-) bacterial strains, both American Type Culture Collection standard strains and clinically isolated (CI), one potentially pathogenic ye…
Synthesis and in vitro antimicrobial activities of new (cyano-NNO-azoxy) pyrazole derivatives
2011
The antibacterial and antifungal activity of a series of products, in which the 1,5-dimethyl-4-(cyano- NNO-azoxy)pyrazol-3-yl and 1,3-dimethyl-4-(cyano-NNO-azoxy)pyrazol-5-yl moieties were linked to pyridine, pyrazole, isoxazole, thiophene and the furan ring, were examined. No molecule displayed activity against the Gram-negative bacteria tested. Conversely, some compounds displayed activity against two Staphylococcus aureus strains, including the methicillin resistant strain. All compounds displayed interesting antifungal activity, the most active compound of the series being the thiophene derivative 7a. This compound’s activity against Candida krusei and Candida glabrata (MIC = 0.25 and 0…
Aktywność biologiczna Bacillus amyloliquefaciens wobec Fusarium spp. wyizolowanych z pędów szparaga (Asparagus officinalis L.)
2016
Patogeny roślin, takie jak Fusarium spp. to najważniejsze czynniki, które co roku powodują znaczne straty i/lub uszkodzenia produktów rolnych. Celem przeprowadzonych badań była ocena in vitro właściwości biologicznych B. amyloliquefaciens wobec F. proliferatum i F. oxysporum wyizolowanych z pędów bielonego szparaga odmiany Grolim. W badaniach uwzględniono: gęstość i wiek hodowli bakterii, rodzaj podłoża oraz wpływ płynu pohodowlanego. Ocenę właściwości antagonistycznych hodowli bakterii 6, 12, 24 i 48- godzinnych przeprowadzono w oparciu o wskaźniki: zdolność kiełkowania zarodników, tempo wzrostu liniowego i indeks tempa wzrostu grzybów z zastosowaniem podłoży PDA oraz szparagowego. Najwięk…
The influence of fluorine position on the properties of fluorobenzoxaboroles
2015
5-Fluoro-2,1-benzoxaborol-1(3H)-ol, a potent antifungal drug also known as Tavaborole or AN2690, has been compared with its three isomers in terms of its activity against several fungi as well as pKa and multinuclear NMR characterization. The molecular and crystal structure of 6-fluoro-2,1-benzoxaborol-1(3H)-ol was determined and compared with that of AN2690.
Bacillus subtilis BS-2 and Peppermint Oil as Biocontrol Agents Against Botrytis cinerea
2019
The purpose of this study was to assess the activity of Bacillus subtilis BS-2 and peppermint oil against Botrytis cinerea. In this study parameters such as the age and the density of the bacterial culture and the incubation temperature were taken into consideration. Furthermore, the cellulolytic activity of the bacterium was determined. The effect of peppermint oil was evaluated at a concentration range of 0.5-4.0 %. The research was conducted with a dual culture plate method. The influence of B. subtilis BS-2 and peppermint oil on the growth of B. cinerea was evaluated based on the growth rate index. It was noted that the bacterial culture occurred at an initial density of OD560 = 1.0, cu…
