Purpose A significant increase in the incidence of fungal infections and drug resistance has
been observed in the past decades due to limited availability of broad-spectrum antifungal …

Silver nanoparticles (AgNps) have attracted maximal attention among all metal
nanoparticles, and the study of their biological properties has gained impetus for further …

Purpose: The pathogenicity in Candida spp was attributed by several virulence factors such
as production of tissue damaging extracellular enzymes, germ tube formation, hyphal …

Alcoholic extract of tulsi leaves was used as a reducing and stabilizing agent for the
synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The use of plant extract for the synthesis of …

Candida albicans is the most common fungal pathogen in humans, and recently some
studies have reported the antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) against some …

Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are known to have inhibitory and bactericidal effects.
Resistance of fungal infections has emerged in recent years and is a major health problem …

Multidrug resistance of the pathogenic microorganisms to the antimicrobial drugs has
become a major impediment toward successful diagnosis and management of infectious …

In this study, the antifungal activity of AgNPs was tested against C. tropicalis (pathogen
fungi) and S. boulardii (probiotic). The effectiveness of the AgNPs was assessed by …

Background: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) inhibit the proliferation of various fungi; however,
their mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. To better understand the inhibitory …

In this study, the antifungal effects of silver nano-particles (nano-Ag) and their mode of action
were investigated. Nano-Ag showed antifungal effects on fungi tested with low hemolytic …
