The present study was carried out to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of Emblica officinalis juice powder. The antimicrobial activity was assessed against gram positive and gram negative bacteria namely E.coli, Pseudomonas fluoresces, Bacillus subtilis, S.aureus, and fungi namely Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum, Alternaria alternata, and Fusarium spp by ag...

fungi are found in different environments with variable distribution patterns depending on various factors. the aim of this study was determination of fungal contaminants in public swimming pools in uromia, iran. the fungal contaminations of four indoor swimming pools were studied by using membrane filtration and swab sampling method. samples were collected by a manual plastic pump, in a 200 ml...

The article presents the data on potato agrocenoses affected by Alternaria blight under influence of various factors that have a stressful effect host plant and contribute to damage crop disease. It’s established nematodes increase susceptibility disease, promoting epiphytotic development at earlier stages ontogenesis. Under conditions natural infectious load pathogens weather disease was obser...

Airborne biological allergens trigger an allergic response required for the development of atopic disease. Biological allergens are released into the air by wind, rain and active discharge mechanisms. In this review article an attempt has been made to evaluate the published literature on prevalence and types of air borne allergens in India. Important pollen allergens reported from India were: P...

The ability of two different flow cytometers, the Microcyte (Optoflow) and the PAS-III (Partec), to differentiate sporangia of the late-blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans from other potential airborne particles was compared. With the PAS-III, light scatter and intrinsic fluorescence parameters could be used to differentiate sporangia from conidia of Alternaria or Botrytis spp., rust uredini...

BACKGROUND : The aim of this study is to investigate relationships between fungal colonization in the house and IgE sensitization to fungi, and to clarify the effects of house care in relation to fungi. MATERIALS AND METHODS : We measured levels of fungi in the houses of 52 allergic children. Of these, 32 children displayed detectable levels of IgE (≥0.35 UA/ml) to a combination of fungi (pos...

This study assessed the composition of aeromycota at a grain mill and four dwellings (two apartments and two basements) as well as in outdoor air during one year in Zagreb, Croatia. The incidence of Aspergilli from sections Flavi, Nigri, and Versicolores was also assessed. Airborne fungi were collected using an air-sampler and DG-18 agar plates. The average concentrations of airborne fungi in t...

The effect of three fungicide treatment programmes and the level spring nitrogen fertilisation on seed yield two types ofcultivars Brassica napus L. sown at different seeding rates was studied in a field experiment. subject study anopen-pollinated cultivar ‘Casoar’ restored hybrid ‘Visby’. Three plant protection programmes, levels nitrogenfertilisation (160 220 kg N⋅ha1), for each (‘Visby’—50 7...
