  • Descrição: This work is an attempt to examine the antifungal activity of thymol, carvacrol, eugenol and menthol against 11 food-decaying fungi. The susceptibility test for the compounds was carried out in terms of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) using microdilution method in 96 multi-well microtiter plates. Results indicated that all compounds were effective to varying extents against various fungal isolates, with the highest efficacy displayed by carvacrol (mean MIC value: 154.5μg/mL) (P<0.05). The incorporation of increased concentrations of all compounds to the media led to progressive and significant reduction in growth for all fungi. The most potent inhibitory activity of thymol, carvacrol, eugenol and menthol was found for Cladosporium spp. (MIC: 100μg/mL), Aspergillus spp. (MIC: 100μg/mL), Cladosporium spp. (MIC: 350μg/mL), and Aspergillus spp. and Cladosporium spp. (MIC: 125μg/mL), respectively. Thus, the application of these herbal components could be considered as a good alternatives to inhibit fungal growth and to reduce the use of synthetic fungicides. Ce travail étudie l’activité antifongique de thymol, carvacrol, eugenol et menthol contre 11 champignons, agents de dégradation des aliments. : Les tests de sensibilité utilisés pour ces composés sont les concentrations minimales inhibitrices (CMI) et les concentrations minimales fongicides par la méthode de micro-dilution en plaques de 96 puits. Les résultats indiquent que tous les composés utilisés ont une activité plus ou moins intense contre les champignons testés avec la meilleure activité pour le carvacrol (CMI moyenne : 154,5μg/mL) (p<0,05). L’incorporation de concentrations croissantes de toutes les composés dans le milieu de culture a produit la réduction progressive et significative de la croissance pour tous les champignons. L’activité inhibitrice la plus puissante de thymol, carvacrol, eugénol et du menthol a été trouvée contre Cladosporium spp. (MIC : 100μg/mL), Aspergillus spp. (MIC : 100μg/mL), Cladosporium spp. (MIC : 350μg/mL) et Aspergillus spp. et Cladosporium spp. (MIC : 125μg/mL), respectivement. Ainsi, l’utilisation de ces composantes provenant de plantes pourrait être considérée comme une alternative aux fongicides synthétiques pour inhiber la croissance fongique.
