An anti-fungal composition with pharmacological applications in agriculture and
food industry, has been developed.
The
composition, developed and patented by the UA Research Group in Plant
Pathology, is based on the combined use of chitosan, or chitosan
oligosaccharides (COS), antifungal agents and additives that synergistically
affect the growth of a variety of pathogenic fungi.
The
various experiments carried out by the research group are proof of the
significant synergistic effect of the combination of chitosan (or COS) and
other antifungals and ARL1 gene inhibitor, in inhibiting the growth of mould
and yeast.
