The aim of the present project is the industrial research and production of novel biological biocides friendly to the user and to the environment based on oomycete Pythium oligandrum. The project explores the opportunity at the market of the biocidal antiseptic means characterized by the total absence of the biological means eliminating fungi and yeasts on the basis of the biological antagonism in the way that is targeted and gentle.
The present project will also evaluate protocols for the testing of efficiency and safety for the suggested biocides with the development of fully functional samples for type 1 and 3 biocides.
