Abstract | ||
The aims of this study isolation and identification of Bifidobacterium bifidus from dairy sources samples and tests the ability of inhibition effect isolates at different temperatures and pH levels against some locally isolates of pathogenic fungi species. The results was indicated that ability to isolates five species of pathogenic fungi from different sources and the identification was appear as Microsporum canis, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Aspergillus fumigatus and Rhizopus stolinfer species. The highest inhibition effect against the above mentioned fungi was shown when the temperature was at 35°C and the diameter of inhibition zone with the M. canis, T. mentagrophytes, A. fumigatus and R. stolonifer were at 25, 28, 26 and 27 mm respectively. While the effects of the pH levels was appear in a highest effects in the 5.5 levels, and the diameter of inhibition zone for above mention fungi were became at 28 , 32 , 30 and 30 mm respectively. | ||
