Abstract:		"Previously, we isolated and examined a bacterial strain designated as TM-I-3, belonging to the genus Bacillus, from soil in Nagasaki, Japan. This bacterium was able to inhibit the growth of molds, without coming into direct contact with them. Non-contact antifungals are capable of providing multidirectional inhibition and may contribute to disease prevention. In this study, we revealed the bacteriological properties of TM-I-3 and evaluated the antifungal activity of the compounds emitted from this bacterium. In addition, we analyzed the antimicrobial substances released from TM-I-3 using GC/MS to elucidate the mechanism of its action. Antimicrobial compounds from strain TM-I-3 were identified as acetic acid, propanoic acid, isovaleric acid, 2-methylbutanoic acid, and benzaldehyde, which are all reported to have antimicrobial activity. TM-I-3 demonstrated possible efficacy in inhibiting the growth of Aspergillus fumigatus, Cladosporium cladosporioides and Penicillium expansum, which may lead to inhibition of common fungal contaminants of household products and prevention of some pulmonary diseases"
