Resistance of Green Treated Dendrocalamus asper (Buluh Betong) against Aspergillus brasiliensis Attack
Dendrocalamus asper, D.asper (Buluh Betong) were pressure treated with a plant-based extract from (Cinnamomum camphor (l.) presl) and Cymbopogon citratus Stapf.). The durability of treated D. asper toward mould (Aspergillus brasiliensis) attack was evaluated. Camphor leaf extract has strong antifung...

| Summary: | Dendrocalamus asper, D.asper (Buluh Betong) were pressure treated with a plant-based extract from (Cinnamomum camphor (l.) presl) and Cymbopogon citratus Stapf.). The durability of treated D. asper toward mould (Aspergillus brasiliensis) attack was evaluated. Camphor leaf extract has strong antifungal compounds, including D-camphor, eucalyptol, alpha-terpineol, linalool, and 4-terpineol that suppress mould activity. Fixing the camphor extract with 10%, MUF increased mould resistance as compared to treatment with camphor extract alone. Treatments were selected based on the initial screening test that showed the inhibitory effect of mould. Results showed the potential of plant extracts as green bamboo treatment. |
