Abstract
A field of biological fungicides with a broad range of antifungal activity coming from plant extracts from the order of Brassicales or molecules revealing similar chemical structure. In particular, Applicants surprisingly provided a new usage of a combination of sulfonyl and sulfinyl containing aliphatic glucosinolates, their by-products and synthetic analogues as efficient antifungal compounds with broad spectrum of activity.
Claims8
A fungicide composition comprising the combination of at least two compounds, wherein the combination of at least two compounds is a mixture of 1-Isothiocyanato-8-(methylsulfonyl)-octane and 1-Isothiocyanato-8-(methylsulfinyl)-octane or a mixture of 1-Isothiocyanato-8-(methylsulfonyl)-octane and 1-Isothiocyanato-9-(methylsulfinyl)-nonane,
- wherein the EC50 of the combination is lower than the EC50 of each component of the combination against a fungal pathogen and/or wherein the combination index (CI) of the combination is <1.
A disinfectant composition in oral hygiene or sanitary articles comprising the combination of 1-Isothiocyanato-8-(methylsulfinyl)-octane/1-Isothiocyanato-8-(methylsulfonyl)-octane,
- wherein the EC50 of the combination is lower than the EC50 of each component of the combination against a fungal pathogen and/or wherein the combination index (CI) of the combination is <1.
