摘要
The bioefficacy of Fagopyrum esculentum alpha-amylase inhibitor (FEAI) as an antifungal agent was studied against the fungi Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus. FEAI was purified using ion exchange chromatography on Poros-HS 50. The effects of FEAI on the growth of fungi were studied at varying concentrations of the inhibitor by evaluating the inhibition of growth by colony count method and reduction in mycelium dry weight in presence of the inhibitor. The changes in the morphology of FEAI treated mycelia were examined by light microcopy and by scanning electron microscopy.
