post-harvest losses particularly due to fungal invasions, is a major factor in limiting the shelf life of many fruits and vegetables. in order to study the effects of essential oils of thyme (thymus kotschyanus), basil (ocimum basilicum) and rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis) on control of grey mold (botrytis cinerea) disease in pear, a series of in vitro and in vivo (during cold storage of pear...

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of dietary supplementation of ajwain (Trachyspermum ammi) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) essential oils(EO)on nutrients digestibility, blood parameters and growth performanceof neonatal dairy calves during eight weeks. Sixty suckling dairy calves with an initial body weight (43.2±3.8 kg) were randomly allocated to five treatments including CO, contr...

this experiment was conducted in national institute of ornamental plants for extending vase life of anturium andranum cv. climax cut flowers. experiment was done based on completely randomized design (crd) with three replications and three cut flowers per replicate. treatments included volk oil emulsion wax coating (10, 20 and 30 percent), thyme oil (100, 150 and 250 ppm), salicylic acid (200, ...

growth inhibition of aspergillus fumigatus,aspergillus flavus and fusarum solani exposed to the essential oils including thyme, agastache and satureja were studied. disc diffusion method was used to evaluate the fungal growth inhibitory effects of the essential oils. minimal inhibitory concentration (mic) and minimal fungicidal concentration (mfc) of the oils were determined and compared with e...

In this study, thyme essensial oil was extracted by water distillation method and was analysed by GS/MS, then we investigated the antifungal effect of this essential oil on Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceri. (A), Macrophomina phaseolina (B), Bipolaris spicifera (C) on the basis of agar dilution method with different concentrations (200, 400, 800 and 1600) The test was carried out with factorial e...

PURPOSE Oral candidiasis may be manifested in the oral cavity as either mild or severe oral fungal infection. This infection results from the overgrowth of Candida species normally existing in the oral cavity in minute amounts based on many predisposing factors. Several aspects have spurred the search for new strategies in the treatment of oral candidiasis, among which are the limited numbers o...
