Oral candidiasis is frequently associated with Candida biofilms. Biofilms are microbial
communities related to persistent, recalcitrant and difficult to-treat infections. Conventional …

Fungi from the genus Candida are very important human and animal pathogens. Many
strains can produce biofilms, which inhibit the activity of antifungal drugs and increase the …

Background: Candida biofilm and associated infections is a serious threat to the large
population of immunocompromised patients. Biofilm growth on prosthetic devices or host …

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate four phytocompounds (cinnamaldehyde,
citral, eugenol and geraniol) for their in vitro inhibitory activity against pre-formed biofilms of …

The biofilm communities of Candida are resistant to various antifungal treatments. The ability
of Candida to form biofilms on abiotic and biotic surfaces is considered one of the most …

Combinatorial therapy involving plant molecules with antifungal drugs would be an effective
complementary approach against drug-resistant Candida biofilms. The aim of this study was …

The current treatment options for Candida albicans biofilm-device related infections are very
scarce due to their intrinsic increased tolerance to antimycotics. The aim of this work was to …

Candida species have emerged as important and common opportunistic human pathogens,
particularly in immunocompromised individuals. The current antifungal therapies either have …

In nature, microorganisms prefer to reside in structured microbial communities, termed
biofilms, rather than as free-floating planktonic cells. Advantageous for the microorganisms …

The antibiofilm activity of 10 terpenes was tested in vitro against three Candida species by
24-h treatment of biofilms aged 1–5 days. Treatment of 24-h-old Candida albicans biofilms …
