Abstract
There is an increasing interest toward the understanding of the important fungus, #Aspergillus flavus,
which has a high impact on our health and economy. Controlling such
microbe could be achieved by evacuating its cells using simple tool.
Recently, the #Sponge-Like protocol for bacterial ghosts' preparation was
introduced. Then, this protocol concept was extended to include not
only bacterial cells but also yeast cells as well as viruses. In this
study, for the first time we applied this protocol to pathogenic fungi
as #Aspergillus flavus turning it to unviable, dead and evacuated
ghost cells. We introduce the idea of using the minimum growth
concentration (MGC) and the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) for
controlling Aspergillus flavus and other type of fungi either in
our food or those infecting us. Using mixture of compounds proves to
have effect on certain microbes upon the use of their minimum effect,
which could be a solution for treating many diseases without damaging
the cells and tissues as well as our organs. A. flavus which is
responsible for causing different superficial infections besides its
ability to produce hazardous #aflatoxins was used as a model in this
study.
