constant use of chemical fungicides has faced to increasing public concern regarding contamination of perishables with fungicidal residues, and proliferation of resistance in the pathogen populations. so recent researches in this area has focused on the development and evaluation of alternative control strategies to reduce dependency on synthetic fungicides. accordingly, in this research in vit...

Background and Purpose Candidaalbicans is the most common cause of candidal infections. Various studies have shown drug resistance among C. albicans isolates; thus, it is necessary to discover replacement treatments for Candida infections. In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of different essential oils against azoles-resistant and azoles-susceptible isolates. Materials and Methods ...

BACKGROUND The Candida species are the most important factors of fungal infections in humans and animals. It is necessary to prepare antifungal or antimicrobial drugs because of increasing drug resistance. The natural treatment of diseases of bacterial origin using medicinal plants is important. In this study the effect of antimicrobial medicinal herbal essential oils and conventional antifunga...

The object of this research was to find an alternative to fungicide for the prevention of postharvestfruits. Therefore the effect of Zataria multiflora essential oil on the quality of Sultana grapes followingthe harvest was investigated. The essential oil was extracted by hydro-distillation and analyzed using acombination of GC and GC/MS. The results indicated a high percentage of anti-fungal c...

Backgrounds and aims: Candida albicans is more prevalent between Candida species which can cause candidal infection. Various studies have shown drug resistance among the C. albicans isolates, so it is now necessary to discover replacement treatments for the Candida infection. The aim of this study is comparison the effects of different Essential oils (EOs) against azoles-resistant and azoles-su...
