Inhibitory effects of <i>Trichoderma asperellum</i> culture filtrates on pathogenic bacteria, <i>Burkholderia pseudomallei</i>

Our findings demonstrate that <i>T. asperellum</i> culture filtrates possess bactericidal activity and effectively disrupt biofilm formation by <i>B. pseudomallei</i>. This suggests that <i>T. asperellum</i> could potentially be used to reduce the presence of <i>B. pseudomallei</i> in the environment and, consequently, lower the incidence of melioidosis.
