摘要:
“Cysteine amino-acid compound (or its analogues) used in the disruption of microbial biofilms by treatment of prevention of diseases generated by phytopathogenic bacteria attacking plants of agricultural interest” represented by an innovative solution within the agriculture sector, where said compound can be used in the pharmacological form, as a drug associated with fertilizer for the combat of bacterial diseases which form microbial biofilms, such as citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), citric canker, huanlongbing (HLB) disease or ‘greening’, amongst other, which inventive concept, as such, never before completed, resides in the benefit deriving from the cysteine amino-acid, and all of its analogues, in the inhibitory action and progressive disruption of the microbial biofilm thus liberating the nutritive flux and hydration of the root to the upper part of the plant and the subsequent regression of the disease symptoms, with the added advantage that the cysteine amino-acid compound is non-toxic, guaranteeing healthy production of foods by plants of agricultural interest that are totally healthy, without toxic residues in their composition, as well as when said compound is applied there is risk to the environment due to the rapid absorption, notably within the area in which it is applied, where such predicates of disease combat, with the exception of toxic collateral effects still guarantee that the final crop and harvest will have a higher productivity per hectare.
