Abstract
In this study, the antimicrobial activity of Pleurotus eryngii var. ferulae grown on various agrowastes were investigated. The antimicrobial activity from the extract of P. eryngii var. ferulae which was obtained from various culture medium was evaluated according to the disk diffusion method by using Bacillus megaterium DSM 32, Staphylococcus aureus COWAN 1, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Klebsiella pneumoniae FMC 5, Candida albicans FMC 17, Candida glabrata ATCC 66032, Trichophyton spp., and Epidermophyton spp. At the end of the experimental studies, the methyl alcohol extracts of P. eryngii var. ferulae were shown to inhibit to different degrees the growth of microorganisms to (7.7-10.3 mm) also, mushroom extracts have a lower antimicrobial activity as to a comparison antibiotic (13.0-18.0 mm).
期刊介绍:
EurAsian Journal of BioSciences (Abbrev. Eurasia J Biosci or EJOBIOS) is an international, refereed electronic journal. It publishes the results of original research in the field of biological sciences restricted tomorphology, physiology, genetics, taxonomy, ecology and biogeography of both prokaryotic and eucaryotic organisms. The journal encourages submission of manuscripts dealing with plant biology, animal biology, plant physiology, microbiology, hydrobiology, ecology and environmental science, ethnobiology, biodiversity and conservation biology. EurAsian Journal of BioSciences publishes original articles in the following areas: -Agriculture, Fisheries & Food -Anatomy & Morphology -Behavioural Sciences -Biology, Biochemistry and Biotechnology -Biophysics -Biology Education -Cellular Biology and Anatomical Sciences -Ecology, Evolution & Environment -Entomology -Forestry -General Biology -Genetics & Heredity -Life Sciences - Other topics -Microbiology and Immunology -Molecular Biology -Mycology -Palaeontology -Parasitology -Pharmacology & Pharmacy -Physiology and Related Sciences -Plant Sciences -Toxicology -Veterinary Sciences -Virology -Zoology
