Inhibitive effect of Urginea epigea methanolic extract and silver/zinc oxide nanoparticles on Aspergillus and aflatoxin production.
Food crops contaminated with Aspergillus flavus due to aflatoxins can be hazardous for both humans and animals, hence endeavours are being explored to find natural antifungals to combat the contamination and mycotoxin issue. The current study used the agar dilution method to assess the effect of Urg...
