Abstract
- The inhibition of some fungal strains responsible for paper biodeterioration is reported. Antimicrobials (butylated hydroxytoluene, BHT and butylated hydroxyanisole, BHA), azole antifungals (econazole, miconazole and ketoconazole) and chitin synthase inhibitors (uridine, Sfluorouridine, 2-deoxyuridine) have been assessed for efficacy against Penicillium chrysogenum Thorn, Aspergillus terreus Thorn, Stachybotrys atra Corda and Chaetomium elatum Kunze, fungal strains isolated from deteriorated papers. Our results have shown that the most evident inhibitin 9 effect on fungal growth has been obtained with miconazole and econazole at lo- M. 0 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Limited
