Abstract:
Pisolithus arrhizus (Scop.) Rauschert (Basidiomycetes) type is an ectomycorrhizal fungi found in the soil that surrounds many species of eucalyptus and pine trees. In this study, it was aimed to determine the inhibitory effect of Titanium (TiO2) nanoparticle (NP) prepared by using Pisolithus arrhizus ethanol extract on different pathogenic microorganisms. In the study, NP’s synthesized using hydrothermal method was characterized by UV-vis spectrometer (UV-vis) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The antimicrobial activity of these prepared and characterized NP’s, have been investigated by using disk diffusion method on test pathogens of Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans and Streptococcus mutans. While NPs have a weak inhibitory effect on pathogens (7.5-9.3 mm), the maximum inhibition (9.3 mm) is shown against S. mutans. Whereas antifungal effect against C. albicans have not been found.
