Antifungal Activity of Oleuropein against Candida albicans-The In Vitro Study.
In the present study we investigated activity of oleuropein, a complex phenol present in large quantities in olive tree products, against opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans. Oleuropein was found to have in vitro antifungal activity with a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 12.5 mg·mL-1. Morphological changes in the nuclei after staining with fluorescent DNA-binding dyes...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of five antifungal agents against Candida albicans isolates, Sari, Iran
Background and Purpose: Candida albicans is the most common causative agent of candidiasis. Candidiasis management is dependent on the immune status of the host, severity of disease, and the choice of antifungal drug. Antifungals, specifically triazoles, are widely administered for the treatment of invasive fungal infections. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the in vitro susceptibility of C. alb...
متن کاملIn Vitro Antifungal Activity of Equol against Candida albicans
In this study, we demonstrate that equol has fungicidal activities against Candida albicans. The minimum inhibitory and minimum fungicidal concentrations of equol against C. albicans were 516 and 1,032 µM, respectively. Two separate viability assays found that equol changed the integrity of the C. albicans cell membrane, possibly by formation of membrane lesions. Scanning electron microscopy de...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of antifungal combinations against Candida albicans biofilms.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro activity and synergism of the combinations of amphotericin B/caspofungin and amphotericin B/posaconazole against Candida albicans, grown either as planktonic cells or in biofilms. METHODS Ten C. albicans bloodstream isolates used in this study were collected from intensive care patients admitted to the Vienna University Hosp...
متن کاملEncapsulation of nystatin in nanoliposomal formulation: characterization, stability study and antifungal activity against Candida albicans
In this study, nystatin liposomal formulation was prepared and characterized. The physicochemical properties of formulations including vesicle size, drug entrapment stability and in vitro release were studied. The highest entrapment efficiency of nystatin into liposomes was obtained about 70% when cholesterol (CHO) was added to the formulations prepared with dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine. In a...
