Figure 2.
Effect of ACP on spore germination (a) of Aspergillus niger and A. rugulovalvus in malt extract medium after 30 min of ACP treatment. Confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis of cell viability in A. rugulovalvus (b,c) A. niger (d,e) after treatment and stained with green fluorescence CFDA (carboxyfuorescein diacetate) and red propidium iodide (PI) dyes. Bars indicate percentage of cell live (green) and death (red) spores in A. rugulovalvus (f) and A. niger (g), respectively. Different letters represent significant differences between the sample (p < 0.05; Tukey HSD post-hoc test).
