Antifungal activity (%) of ethanol extracts (10 mg/mL) from orange, lemon and mandarin citrus peels, assayed at 25 °C for 7 days. (a) Colony diameter (mm) including disc diameter of 4 mm and (b) antifungal activity (%) compared to TBQH positive control. ‘a, b, c’ represent significant differences comparing each peel extracted samples to negative control (DMSO) for colony diameter; * represents significant differences comparing orange and lemon extracts to mandarin extracts. a/***, p ≤ 0.0001; b/**, p ≤ 0.001; c/*, p ≤ 0.05 and ns, p > 0.05. Results are means of three replicated dishes.
