| Abstract: | Sporangiospores were treated with high hydrostatic pressure and/or fungal chitinase in order to study the inhibition of germination and growth of the food spoiling mold Mucor plumbeus. Total fungal inhibition was obtained either at 4.0 kbar or by 10 U/ml of chitinase from Penicillium janthinellum. A pretreatment with 1 U/ml of the same chitinase reduced the pressure necessary to obtain complete spore inhibition to 3 kbar. |
