Polychromatic luminescence and improved antifungal performance of succinic acid in the lattice of L-Lysine monohydrochloride

The incorporation of succinic acid (SA) in the lattice of L-Lysine monohydrochloride (LM) has opened the new avenue in the field of production and application of scintillator materials such as LED and antifungal drug. Crystalline trait and monoclinic structure were scanned by XRD. The existence of carbonyl, carboxylate and protonated amine group were confirmed through FTIR and UV spectra predicted the transmittance of SA: LM crystal. Polychromatic luminescence behaviour had achieved through the incorporation of SA instead of blue luminescence, which is a new result. Also SA: LM exhibited good response towards pathogenic fungi which causes numerous types of infections and diseases in both humans and animals. The high inhibitory zone at 16 mm was formed by the grown SA: LM crystal against the life threatening fungi like Candida albicans. Also fungal inhibition against candida parapsilosis and Aspergillus flaves, respectively, were tuned by the inclusion of succinic acid.
