Inhibition activities of the ethyl alcohol or acetone extracts of dehydrated Allium species were studied by disc-diffusion and broth dilution methods. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and the Minimum Fungicidal Concentration (MFC) were found in the range of 75 and 100 mg/mL (w/v). Ethyl alcohol extracts of dehydrated onion (Allium cepa L.) in the range of 75 and 175 mg/mL were determined as the most inhibitory MIC and MFC for A. niger, F. oxysporum and C. albicans respectively. The extracts possess antifungal activity against some of the tested filamentous fungi and yeasts at various concentrations.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAlliumAntifungal effectGarlicLeekOnionAntimicrobial activityAntifungal activityEssential oilsGarlic powderPlantsOnionSativumAntioxidantCompoundProductsFood science & technologyAllium cepaAllium porrumAllium sativumAspergillus nigerCandida albicansFungiFusarium oxysporumMetschnikowia fructicolaArticle0002637820000022-s2.0-606491171403641Food science & technologyAllicin; Garlic; Diallyl Trisulfide
