This research illustrates the qualitative and quantitative composition of the mycoflora of both a green compost (thermophilically produced from plant debris) and a vermicompost (mesophilically produced by the action of earthworms on plant and animal wastes after thermophilic preconditioning). Fungi were isolated using three media (PDA, CMC, PDA plus cycloheximide), incubated at three temperatur...

Endophytes provide mutual benefits and produce various biologically active secondary metabolites in plants. Our study was designed to isolate identify fungal endophytes from fresh leaf bark of Tinospora cordifolia, coupled with their bioactivity preliminary chemical screening. Six endophytic fungi were isolated using surface sterilization technique. The identified by microscopic molecular chara...

background: extensive full-thickness burns require replacement of both epidermis and dermis. in designing skin replacements, the goal has been to re-create this model and make a product which has both essential components. methods: in the present study, we developed procedures for establishing confluent, stratified layers of cultured human keratinocytes on the surface of modified collagen-chito...

One source of antibiotics-producing microorganisms that are now widely used as a treatment for infections comes from the soil. Soil is an excellent medium growth and development various microorganisms. The search new antibiotics currently urgently needed, because their use not following instructions, causing disease resistance. This study aims to get antimicrobial-producing microbial isolates c...

   The results of isolation and diagnosis from the samples ficus Saladin Governorate are Samarra, Samara University, Balad Dhuloiya. disease was caused by Hendersonula torulidea Nattrass, which isolated all 100%. Ficus plant in Iraq.. isolates did not differ daily growth rate their dimensions on PDA medium. Pathogenicity tests showed that studied areas a significant increase severity ...

Liposomes containing lipids and polydiacetylene (PDA) are hybrid systems encompassing both a fluid phospholipid membrane and a polymer scaffold (PDA). However, the biophysical role of PDA in such liposomes is not well understood. In this report, we studied the effects of photopolymerization of PDA on the stability of lipid-PDA liposomes, and their sensitivity to selected purified toxins and bac...

Piriformospora indica, which is an endophytic fungus that grows on various media in the absence of a host, emits plant growth promoting volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Kaefer medium (KF) has been shown to be most suitable for P. indica growth; however, different may differentially affect fungal metabolism turn influence VOC profiles indica. To date, how VOCs emitted from cultured not well ch...

Abstract Penicillium is an entomopathogenic fungus which can be used as a bio-bactericidal. Its existence in nature found together with other microbes including Trichoderma, biocontrol agent that has the ability to damage cell walls of fungi due activity extracellular enzyme chitinase it produces. This study aims obtain potential isolates agents from vegetable growing fields and determine their...
