    Anthracnose disease of mangoes is caused by Collectotrichum gloeosporioides. A control method that does not include synthetic fungicides would be beneficial therefore fumigation, in an especially designed vapour exposure box, with vapour from upland rice vinegar and ethanol were tested in vitro on C. gloeosporioides isolated from mangoes and cultured on PDA. Fumigation times were 0, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 min for ethanol and vinegar vapours separately and in mixtures at different ratios for 0, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15 min. Exposure to either ethanol vapour or vinegar vapour controlled both mycelial growth and conidia germination during subsequent storage for seven days at 28°C–32°C, but ethanol was more effective than vinegar and ethanol was more effective alone than in any of the combinations with vinegar. These results provide a successful organic anthracnose control method, but in vivo testing is recommended before commercial application

    The efficacy of vapor-phase (VP) upland rice vinegar (URV) was investigated as a bio-fumigant for maize, to reduce consumer health risks associated with spore and toxin formation by Aspergillus flavus. Complete reduction of mycelial growth occurred with in vitro VP exposure to URV (containing 0.0017 mmol/L acetic acid) or with VP exposure to pure acetic acid (PAA) (containing 0.0023 mmol/L acetic acid). No significant differences were observed between the two materials after 90 min exposures. Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), URV vapor was shown to contain volatiles having antifungal activities. These are identified as isoamylalcohol, 1-butanol, 3-methyl-, acetate and β-phenylethyl acetate. It is suggested these volatiles increase the antifungal effectiveness of URV. Exposure to VP-URV (containing 0.0043 mmol/L AA) for 5 h completely eliminated viable spores of A. flavus on maize seeds (23% moisture content) previously inoculated with 4.43 ± 0.28 log spores/g). At the same time, aflatoxin production decreased, as VP-URV exposure increased. Hence, VP-URV is shown to be an effective control agent for A. flavus mycelial growth and aflatoxin formation on maize, so effectively reducing the potential for consumer health risks due to this widespread fungus.

    Liquid and vapor-phase vinegar reduces Klebsiella pneumoniae onfresh coriander

    Samples of fresh coriander were sourced from several markets in the Ladkrabang and Minburi areas of Bangkok, Thailand. These were examined in the laboratory for fecal coliform contamination. The bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae was the predominant contaminant in 48.5-84.0% of the 30 samples tested. Inhibition of surface contaminations of K.pneumoniae by vinegar was measured invitro for either liquid-or vapor-phase exposures. For liquid-phase exposure, levels above 2.4% (v/v) acetic acid (AA) completely inhibited K.pneumoniae. After 50min of vapor-phase exposure, 8% AA completely inhibited K.pneumoniae spread on Mueller Hilton agar (4.10±0.04logCFU/ml, 30±2°C, 80±2% RH). Reduction of K.pneumoniae contamination on fresh coriander leaves using vinegar vapor was also examined. The effectiveness of inhibition was related to the level of K.pneumoniae inoculation, with vinegar vapor being shown to be an effective control agent for surface contaminations on fresh coriander so reducing the potential health risks to consumers.
