Popis: | Highlights • Mandarin peel extracts inhibited the growth of A. flavus by up to 52% over 7 days. • The MIC of mandarin extracts was 300-400 mg mL−1 depending on the extraction solvent. • Phenolic-rich SPE fractions showed 40% higher antifungal activity than crude extracts. • Narirutin and hesperidin were most abundant phenolic compounds in mandarin extracts. Aspergillus flavus is a pathogenic fungus associated with food safety issues worldwide. This study investigated the antifungal activity of citrus peel extracts prepared using food-grade solvents (hot water or ethanol). Mandarin (Citrus reticulata) peel ethanol extracts inhibited the mycelial growth of A. flavus (39.60%) more effectively than those of orange (32.31%) and lemon (13.51%) after 7 days of incubation. The growth of A. flavus could be completely inhibited by mandarin extracts at 300–400 mg mL−1, depending on the extraction solvent. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) separated the polyphenol-rich fractions, which showed up to 40% higher antifungal activity than crude extracts. Twelve polyphenols (2 phenolic acids and 10 flavonoids) were identified by HPLC-DAD, narirutin and hesperidin were the most abundant. In conclusion, citrus peels are promising bioresources of antifungal agents with potential applications in food and other industries. |
