Fresh olive leaf extracts were prepared using various solvents (water, ethanol, acetone, ethyl acetate) in Soxhlet apparatus. Antimicrobial effects of these extracts were tested against Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 9763, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Saccharomyces uvarum, Candida oleophila, Metschnikowia fructicola and Kloeckera apiculata. The antifungal activities of these extracts were tested by the disc diffusion assay, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC). All extracts showed various degrees of antifungal effects with 10-28 mu g/ml MIC, 20-48 mu g/ml MFC and 1.5-9.3 mm inhibitory zone values against yeasts utilised, except water. The results indicated that the tested yeasts were sensitive to acetone and ethyl acetate extracts. It was determined that Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 9763 was the most resistant among the yeasts.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBiotechnology & applied microbiologyMicrobiologyOlea europaea L.Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC)AntifungalOilsModelProductsGrowthOleuropeinAflatoxin productionAntioxidant activitySpoilage yeastsAntimicrobial activitySchizosaccharomyces pombeSaccharomyces uvarumSaccharomyces cerevisiaeSaccharomycesOlea europaeaMetschnikowia fructicolaHanseniaspora uvarumHanseniasporaCandida oleophilaCandidaArticle0002435452000142-s2.0-70849092758359362564Biotechnology & applied microbiologyMicrobiologyVirgin Olive Oil; Oleuropein; Elenolic Acid
