The effect of Kombucha Fermentation on Chestnut Cancer Factor (Cryphonectria parasitica (Murrill) E.M Barr)
Öz
Aim of study: Kombucha is a drink obtained by
fermentation of sugary tea composed of acetic bacteria and yeast symbiosis. Its
effect on prostate cancer and apoptosis, antimicrobial and antioxidant effect
in culture medium has been searched. Apart from these studies, the microbial
fertilizer property of Kombucha in agriculture has been investigated. In this
study, prevention of Cryphonectria parasitica
(Murrill) Barr growth by Kombucha tea is aimed.
Area of study: Kombucha was bought commercially. Infected
samples were obtained from Amasra Topderesi Chestnut Forest
(41°43'34.2"N-32°24'19.0"E).
Material and Methods: Fungi samples were
examined microscopically via Leica DM 750 digital imaging system in vitro.
Anatomic characterisation was performed under light microscope
Main results: In vitro Cryphonecteria parasitica growth
is prevented to a certain extend via Kombucha fermentation. This effect of
Kombucha is thought to be as a result of microbial richness. The aim of this
study is to make think that Kombucha can prevent plant diseases and pave the
way for more important studies in the future.
Highlights: In this study, prevention of Cryphonectria parasitica growth by
Kombucha tea is aimed. It was observed that Kombucha fermentation prevented the
growth of Cryphonectria parasitica in
vitro.
