ETNOBOTANICA ETHNOBOTANICS HONGOS MUSHROOMS KETOCONAZOL ETHNOBOTANIK PILZE PLAGAS DE LAS PLANTAS PLANT PESTS Herbario Juvenal Valerio Rodríguez In this study, 36 extracts derived from 29 plant species selected using an ethnobotanical approach were tested for antifungal activity against a taxonomically diverse group of 13 human pathogenic fungi. We compared the inhibitory characteristics of these plant extracts with those of the commonly used antifungals, amphotericin B and ketoconazole, and the plant-derived antifungal, berberine. Several plant extracts, notably those from Zingiber officinale (ginger) and Juglans cinerea (butternut), had pronounced antifungal activity against a wide variety of fungi, including strains that were highly resistant to amphotericin B and ketoconazole. Further exploration of Z. officinale as an antifungal is warranted as this species is generally regarded as safe for human consumption. En este estudio, se probaron 36 extractos derivados de 29 especies de plantas seleccionadas mediante un enfoque etnobotánico para determinar la actividad antifúngica contra un grupo taxonómicamente diverso de 13 hongos patógenos humanos. Comparamos las características inhibidoras de estos extractos de plantas con las de los antifúngicos de uso común, anfotericina B y ketoconazol, y el antifúngico derivado de plantas, berberina. Varios extractos de plantas, en particular los de Zingiber officinale (jengibre) y Juglans cinerea (butternut), tenían una actividad antifúngica pronunciada contra una amplia variedad de hongos, incluidas cepas que eran altamente resistentes a la anfotericina B y al ketoconazol. Se justifica una mayor exploración de Z. officinale como antifúngico, ya que esta especie se considera generalmente segura para el consumo humano. Es wurden 36 Extrakte von 29 Pflanzenarten auf ihre antimyzetische Aktivita ̈ t gegen 13 humanpathogene Pilzarten untersucht. Die Hemmcharakteristik dieser Pflanzenextrakte wurde mit der von Amphotericin B, Ketoconazol und Berberin verglichen. Mehrere Pflanzenextrakte, besonders die von Zingiber officinale (Ingwer) und Juglans cinerea (Butternuss) zeigten eine deutliche antimyzetische Aktivita ̈ t gegen ein breites Pilzspektrum einschließlich solcher Sta ̈ mme, die hochresistent gegen Amphotericin B und Ketoconazol waren. Die weitere Untersuchung der antimyzetischen Aktivita ̈ t von Z. officinale erscheint vielversprechend, da diese Art allgemein als sicher fu ̈ r menschlichen Konsum angesehen wird.
