摘要: Abstract In this study the antifungal activity of eight essential oils and three hydrosols (aqueous distillates) from Australian grown lavenders was determined. The were assayed against four fungi, Aspergillus nidulans, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Leptosphaeria maculans Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, using a disc diffusion method. No evidence observed with any hydrosols. contrast, all displayed some activity. Lavandula angustifolia examples x intermedia oil demonstrated greatest effect A. nidulans T. mentagrophytes while L. stoechas particularly effective two agricultural S. sclerotiorum. significant difference between derived European plants. These results suggest that various species may be useful in treatment fungal infections.
