Revista Argentina de Microbiología is published by the Asociación Argentina de Microbiología (AAM) on a quarterly basis. The aim of this journal is to publish current scientific works in the different areas of Microbiology and Parasitology. Some of the topics considered of special interest are: infections caused by bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses; mechanisms of pathogenicity, and virulence factors; resistance to antimicrobial agents; taxonomy; epidemiology and phenotypic, immunologic and molecular diagnostic methods. RAM also publishes articles on microbial ecology and diversity, zoo- and phytopathogens and microorganisms of value for food, agronomic, industrial and environmental applications. With the purpose of covering basic aspects of research in the area, the journal is also interested in the publication of manuscripts on microorganism genomics, proteomics and enzymology, as well as in those articles dealing with regional impact.

Removal of dyes by immobilization of Trametes versicolor in a solid-state micro-fermentation system

L.A. Diorio, D.M. Salvatierra Fréchou, L.N. Levin

Rev Argent Microbiol. 2021;53:3-10

Highlights

•
A two-phase bioreactor for dye decolorization by filamentous fungi is presented.
•
It allowed de-coupling of sterile growth and non-sterile decolorization.
•
First phase involved dye decolorization by immobilized fungal cultures.
•
Spherical plastic polyethylene mesh cartridges filled with wheat bran were used.
•
In the second phase extracellular ligninolytic extracts were applied.

Effect of fungicides commonly used for Fusarium head blight management on growth and fumonisin production by Fusarium proliferatum

Eugenia Cendoya, María Julia Nichea, María del Pilar Monge, Vanessa G.L. Zachetti, Stella Maris Chiacchiera, María Laura Ramirez

Rev Argent Microbiol. 2021;53:64-74

Highlights

•
All fungicides reduced F. proliferatum growth rates when compared to the control.
•
All fungicides reduced fumonisins production when they were used in high doses.
•
Fungicides effect in growth and FBs increased, as they concentration increased.
•
Except P, all fungicides used in sub-lethal doses enhanced FBs production.
•
P was the most effective fungicide: inhibited growth and FBs in most conditions.
