The aim of our study was to evaluate the antidermatophytic potential linalool-rich essential oil (EO) from L. and analyze ability this EO inhibit peptidase keratinase activities, which are important virulence factors dermatophytes. minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were 39, 156 312 µg/mL against Trichophyton rubrum, Epidermophyton floccosum Microsporum gypseum, respectively. To influence on proteolytic keratinolytic activities these dermatophytes, specific assays performed. results indicated inhibited activity proteases keratinases secreted inhibition could be a possible mechanism action Due effective ...
