Antifungal potential of extracts produced from decomposed agricultural wastes by Bosea thiooxidans

Improving Ammonium and Nitrate Release from Urea Using Clinoptilolite Zeolite and Compost Produced from Agricultural Wastes

Improper use of urea may cause environmental pollution through NH3 volatilization and NO3 (-) leaching from urea. Clinoptilolite zeolite and compost could be used to control N loss from urea by controlling NH4 (+) and NO3 (-) release from urea. Soil incubation and leaching experiments were conducted to determine the effects of clinoptilolite zeolite and compost on controlling NH4 (+) and NO3 (-...

efficiency of lignocellulolytic extracts from thermotolerant strain fomes sp. eum1: stability and digestibility of agricultural wastes

production of lignocellulolytic enzymes by the thermotolerant fomes sp. eum1 was determined in solid cultures using corn stover (cs) as a sole substrate or supplemented with 20 % wheat bran (cs+wb). this supplementation increased (p< 0.05) enzymatic activity per gram of initial dry matter (gdm) for xylanases and cellulases: 160 iu g dm-1 and 37 iu g dm-1, respectively; while laccases reached a ...

Screening for Non-polyenic Antifungal Produced by Actinobacteria from Moroccan Habitats: Assessment of Antimycin A19 Production by Streptomyces albidoflavus AS25

Fungal diseases are currently a serious public health problem, due to the limited number of really effective principles, and the emergence of resistant strains to the polyenic antifungals. The aim of this study was to screen, for non-polyenic antifungals production by Actinobacteria, and to validate the screening program by characterizing the produced compounds. Actinobacteria isolates were tes...
