Effect of extraction process parameters on antifungal peptides from Supermeal worm, Zophobas morio (Fabricius)

Acidified isopropanol extract of whole body larvae of Zophobas morio (Fabricius), which contains peptides, has been shown to exhibit an inhibitory effect towards fungal growth. The larvae, commonly known as supermeal worm are cheap and easily maintained. To make the extraction even more cost effec...
