- ItemOpen AccessThe anti-fungal and anti-oxidant properties of polyphenols extracted from the resurrection plant, Myrothamnus flabellifolia(2008) Shibambo, Segopotjo Linah; Lindsey, George G; Brandt, Wolf FIn this study the effects of M. flabellifolia polyphenols on growth of S. cerevisiae yeast strains was investigated. This study showed that M flabellifolia polyphenols inhibited growth of both the wild type and the Δhsp 12 yeast strains largely by binding protein in the growth medium. A decreased specific growth rate, reduced maximum biomass, and prolonged lag phase were observed for both strains.
