Abstract

Antifungal activities were examined and compared for some 40 kinds of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, alcohols, phenolic compounds, ether compoundsand hydrocarbons from essential oils and for some related compounds, using seven fungi.Considerable studies on antimicrobial activities of essential oils and their components have been reported.1~12) However, systematic investigations using many kinds of components of essential oils have yet been very limited.Thus, in the present studies, we examined the antifungal activity of about '40 kinds of compounds from essential oils and several related compounds, using 7 fungi.Furthermore, the relationship between antifungal activity and molecular orbital energy was discussed for carbonyl compounds. MATERIALS AND METHODSReagents.Caryophyllene and perillalcohol were kindly supplied by Mr. Takashi Yasuda of Takasago Perfumery Co., Ltd.All of the other compoundsemployed here were of commercial source.Fungi.The fungi employed for assays of antifungal activity were listed in Table I.These fungi, after isolated from clinical specimens, had been maintained on Sabouraud dextrose agar slants at room temperature at the Research Institute for Chemobiodynamics, Chiba University.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
