Effect of Neem Extract on Fungus Inhibition in Toona ciliata M. Roem.

The increasing human population and continuous demands of timber its derived products like composite wood, has created a significant pressure on the demand for high quality from forests. This, ultimately resulted in pressurising natural forests increase unvailibility production or durable one way to neutralize this is modify other non wood species having undesirable properties hygroscopicity, anisotropy, dimensional instability biodegradability. Treatment with neem extracts as biopreservative proves be very efficient protect bacterial fungal rots. In present study, specimens Toona ciliata M. Roem. were treated leaf seed 72 hours concentrations 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5 2% (w/v), analyzed growth inhibition dry weight basis using Polyporous rubidus. was maximum untreated (control) samples whereas, minimum observed 2.00% concentration. This method comes most eco-friendly processes preservation helps utilization Toon more effective sustainable way. Also, minimal release harmful chemicals environment, widen industrial applications make acceptance society ease.
