A biodegradação é uma tecnologia bastante eficaz que pode ser utilizada para recuperação de áreas impactadas com petroderivados. Neste contexto, o objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar potencial Penicillium sp. (isolado sedimentos mangue no estado Pernambuco) na óleo diesel. identificação da espécie realizada pela análise das estruturas macromorfológica e micromorfológica. O estudo realizado e...

This study shows that some species of fungi are affected by the magnetic field, which should be taken into account in studies airborne fungal and air quality. The aim this paper was to evaluate effect oscillating field (OMF) on behavior colonies three genus growth different culture mediums. stains were: Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium cladosporioides Penicillium citrinum were inoculated 90 mm P...

The mould genus, Penicillium, is known to be a significant source of environmental aero-allergens. One important allergen from Penicillium citrinum, Pen c 2, has been identified by means of two-dimensional immunoblotting using IgE-containing patients' sera. This novel allergen was cloned, sequenced and expressed in Escherichia coli. The cloned cDNA encodes a large 457-amino acid protein precurs...

The antioxidant, antifungal and antibacterial potentials of volatile oils and oleoresin of Cinnamomum zeylanicum Blume (leaf and bark) were investigated in the present study. The oleoresins have shown excellent activity for the inhibition of primary and secondary oxidation products in mustard oil added at the concentration of 0.02% which were evaluated using peroxide, thiobarbituric acid, p-ani...
