Abstract
⺠We studied the effect of sorbitol and xylitol on growth of xerophilic fungi at different aw and temperatures. ⺠In general, the polyols shortened the germination times and increased the growth rates. ⺠The effect on germination was higher at low aw, while growth was more affected at high aw levels.
