Antifungal Activity of Lactic Acid Cocci Isolated from Camel Milk
Abstract: This study examines the antifungal activity of lactic acid cocci isolated from camel milk against mold growth. After the isolation, purification, and characterization of lactic acid cocci, the screening of strains with antifungal activity was done by overlay and confrontation methods against Aspergillus fumigatus. These strains show strong activity. Antifungals were selected to study their inhibitory effect on liquid medium, evaluate their antifungal spectrum, and study the effect of their …
