abstract

in this study, antifungal property of olive leaf extracts against candida albicans ptcc-5027 was examined. fresh olive leaf extracts were prepared using distilled water in a soxhlet apparatus. the antifungal activity of the extract was analyzed by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) and minimum fungicidal concentration (mfc), using the microdilution test and disc diffusion assay. the olive leaf aqueous extracts exhibited antifungal effects against the yeast with an mic of 24 mg/ml, mfc of 48 mg/ml, and inhibition zone diameter of 21 mm. the results indicated the sensitivity of candida albicans ptcc-5027 to olive leaf aqueous extracts.

Antifungal effects of ethanolic and aqueous extracts of Vitex agnus-castus against vaginal isolates of Candida albicans

Background and Purpose: Vulvovaginal candidiasis is one of the most common infections in female genital organs, which is caused by Candida species. Candida albicans is the causative agent of more than 80% of infections, and the role of non-Candida strains in the disease etiology is less prominent. The expansion of Azoles resistance among C. albicans strains is considered an important medical pr...
