ABSTRACT Aeromycoflora over dairy freld at Rarpur was observed by usmg gravity petnplates methods dunng June 2004

10 september 2004 for rarny season. Dunng mvestrgation penod 261 colonres of 19 fungal species were observed. The axrmum number of fungal specres (14 species of 97 colonies) were observed in the month of August 2004 while

mrmmum number of fungal species ( 11 specres of 49 colon res) rn the month of June 2004 The maxrmum percentage ~ontnbutron of Aspergillus mger (14.17%) was followed by Penictfllum sp. (12 26%) Curvulana sp (10.72%) and ~spergilfus fum1gatus (9 19%).

Table 01 F1gure: 00 References : 14

KEY WORDS: Aeromycoflora, Frequency, Contnbutlon

Introduction Vanous m1croorgamsms were present 1n the

ir of anrmal house which affect the health of rnrmals as well as the people those workrng there. rgh concentration of fungal spores plays an

'ioportant role rn dermatophytes deep mycosis and laeroallergens in the animal house

Materials and Methods The survey was carried out for four tnonths

~om rainy season at dairy area intramural of Raipur. luring rnvestigatron periods gravity petriplates fnlaining PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) medi8 were :>posed fortnrghtly for 5-10 minutes rn the ilmosphere of dairy. The exposed petriplates were 1rought into the laboratory and incubated at 26 :': 1 "C ~seven days 1\t the end ofth~ incubation period the ~rcentage ccntnbution and percentage frequency ~~ere assessed 11 The tdentificaticn of fungal spores ~s done with the help of available literatures'''

Results and Discussion Dunng mvest1gat1on period 261 colon1es of

19 fungal specres were observed (Table-/) Among he total fungal flora 14 species belonged to Class leuteromycotrna (73 68%), 2 specres formed :lass Zygomycotrna (1 0 52%), 2 specres were from rniden!lfted groups (10 52%) and 1 from Mycelia lenlra (5.26%) of the total arr spora

The max1mum percentage contnbut1on of

Aspergillus niger ( 14 17%) was followed by Pemcrlfium sp (12.26%), Curvularia sp. (10.72%), Aspergillus fumigatus (9.19%), Alternaria sp. (7.66%) and Rhizopus sp. (6.51 %). The maximum number of fungal specre~ (14 species of 97 colonies) were recorded in'the month of August 2004 while minimum number (11 species of 41 colonies) were observed in the month of June 2004.

Some fungal species were most frequent during investigations i.e A.. niger, A. nidulans, Cu(llularia sp. and Mucor sp. While Cladosporium sp., Nigrospora sp. and unidentified sp. I & II were least frequent.

The results of present investigations showed similarities to the indoor studies conducted by other rnvestigators. In library the major types of mycoflora reported were as Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Nigrospora and Altemana" Higher concentration of Aspergillus was recorded rn buffalo shed" .. Cladosporium, Fusarium and A.spergrl/us with major concentration in cattle shed was recorded' A worker recorded the maJOr concentration of Cladosporium, Aspergillus, Curvulana and Rhizopus over poultry shed'. Hrgher concentration of Aspergillus, Curvularia and Nigrospra in chemistry lab, that of Aspergillus and Curvularia in green house and of Aspergillus in Balodabazar. Cladosporium and Curvularia in inside and outside the caves was recorded'.

INTRODUCTION

Microorganisms (fungi, bacteria and actinomycetes etc.) are present in the atmosphere. The populalion of microbes and other biological particles in the atmosphere is referred as airspora (Gregory, 1961 ). Some airborne fungal spores are known to be responsible for the diverse allergic disorder. The present work provides a critical account of the airbone fungal spores of slum area at Raipur (Kukurbeda) dealing with their numerical and monthly variations in the air.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Fungal spores occurring in the atmosphere of slum area at Raipur were trapped during June 2004 to Decmber 2004 at 15 days intervals with the help of gravi~ PetJiplates method. Five petriplates containing potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium were exposed in the air for 5-10 minutes at the five different places of slum area of Raipur. The exposed petriplates brought to the laboratory and incu­bated at 26 ± 1•c for 5-6 days. After incubation period, fungal colonie• were counted. isolated and identified on the basis of available literatures (Barnett. 1969, and Ellis, 1949, etc.)

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

During present study 28 fungal species of 435 colonies were recorded. Monthly variation and percentage contributions of the fungal species were calculated (table-1 ). Out of total airspora Zygomycolina (7.14%), Deuteromycotina (67.85%), unidentified groups (21.42%) and Mycelia sterilia (3 57%) were recorded. Deutennycotona were highest in number.

During this study Aspergillus niger. Memana sp., Curvularia sp. and Drechslera sp. were

must frequent fungi, whereas Aspergillus fum1gatus. CladoSponum sp . Pemciil1um sp., Aspergillus lerreus, A Juchensis, Fusanum sp and Mucor sp were moderate frequent fung1 On the contrary Botryodiplodia sp., Torula sp., Aspergillus sp I, Alternaria brassicola and unidentified sp. showed least frequent fungi. Tiwari and Sahu (1991 ), Sharma (2001) and Jadhav and TIWari (1994) have also reported Curvularia, Alternaria, Cladosporium and Aspergillus were most frequent.

The results also indicate that maximum percentage contribution of Aspergillus niger (12.87%), Curvularia sp. (11.72%), Cladosporium sp. (9.88%), Alternaria sp. (9.19%) and sterile mycelia (8.73%) and minimum percentage contribution of Penicil/wm sp. (6.66%), Aspergillus terreus (6.45%), Drechslera sp. (6.20%), Aspergillus lumigatus (5.51%) and Fusarium sp. (4.13%)

Maximum numbers of fungal species (17) were reported in the month of November while min1mum number of fur.gal species (10) in the month of August.

Asporgillus niger. Altemana sp., Curvularia sp and Drechslera sp. were present throughout the month. Certain fungi were present more then one month but not 1n all months like Aspergillus mdulans, A fumigatus, A /uchensis, A terreus, Cladosporium sp , Penicillium sp., Fusarium sp., Mucor sp., He/minthosporium sp and Ntgrospora sp.

Some fungi were present only in particular month like Aspergtllus sp. I and unidentified sp. II present only in June. BotryodiplodJa sp and un1dentified sp. Ill were present in ttie month of June and July Alternaria brassicola was present only in October and Btspora sp. was present in the month of November, Unidentified sp. IV and V were present only in t',ugust

Aspergillus sp. being the most common genus occupied the first position Aspergillus sp. w2s found to be most predominant in the air at Raipur, (Tiwari and Sahu, 1988 and Sahu, 1998). Highest concentration of Aspergillus sp. was also observed -From differe~t places, Aurangabad (nlak and Slinivasulu, 1967), Kanpur (Rajan el. a/, 1952) and Raipur (liwari and Jadhav. 2004, Tiwari and Tiwari. 2005). During monthly observation it was also observed that total ~Jngal species increase from September to Dec:ember month. Simtlar results were also reported by Maribhatt and Rajasab (1991) from Gulberga, Uddin (2005) from West Bengal, Pund and Trdke (2005) from Amravati and Jadhav (1996) from Raipur. Similarresults also obtain by Sharma (2001) and Sahu (1996).

During investigation period 1t was observed that the atmosphere of slum area at Raipur (Kukuroed;;1) was never free from 'fungal spores throughout the month.

Antibacterial properties of some medicinal plants against tooth bacteria

Jadhav S.K, KWljam S.R. and Dewangan D. School of Studies in Life Sciences, Pt. Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur- 492 0 I 0

Different plant species are used as tooth sticks. During present investigation five traditional medicinal

plants, which are commonly used for tooth stJcks, i.e. Achyranthes aspera L. (Amarantaceae ), Bar/en a

priontis L. (Acanthaceae), Pongamia pinna/a L. (Fabaceae), Psidium guajava L. (Myrtaceae) and

Azadiracta indica Juss. (Meliaceae) ·were selected.

In present studies, isolate the bacteria from the sample collected from the Govt. Dental College, Raipur

(CG.) and cultured. This bacterial culture poured into the extract of the experimental plants then incubated

for incubation period for their growth.

After the incubation period, observed the bacterial growth by colonial growth and measurements of

optical density (OD) in liquid medium. It was observed that experimental plants show antibacterial activity.

It was also observed that different plant shows the different antibacterial properties. The result also

indicates that Azadiracta indica have ma,ximum antibacterial properties. In other plants less growth was

observed in Psidium guajava, Achyranthes aspera, and Barleria priontis in comparison to Azadirachta

indica.
