The incidence of infections caused by Candida species (candidosis) has increased
considerably over the past three decades, mainly due to the rise of the AIDS epidemic, an …

Fungal biofilm infections have become increasingly recognised as a significant clinical
problem. One of the major reasons behind this is the impact that these have upon treatment …

Background Very few data exist on risk factors for developing biofilm-forming Candida
bloodstream infection (CBSI) or on variables associated with the outcome of patients treated …

Biofilms define mono‐or multispecies communities embedded in a self‐produced protective
matrix, which is strongly attached to surfaces. They often are considered a general threat not …

OBJECTIVE: Although peri-implantitis has presented an ever increasing problem in modern
dentistry, satisfying therapeutic strategies or scientifically based treatment recommendations …

Candida albicans, C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis, and C. tropicalis are able to form biofilms on
virtually any biomaterial implanted in a human host. Biofilms are a primary cause of mortality …

Candida grows on devices producing treatment resistant biofilms. A key tool for the study of
biofilms includes an accurate assessment of viable cell growth. This study systematically …

OBJECTIVES: The purposes of this study were to clarify the surface characteristics of various
implant overdenture materials and the capabilities of Candida albicans adherence and …

The increase in drug resistance and invasion caused by biofilm formation brings enormous
challenges to the management of Candida infection. Aspirin's antibiofilm activity in vitro was …

We investigated the antifungal effect of non-thermal plasma, as well as its combination with
common antifungal drugs, against Candida biofilms. A direct current atmospheric pressure …
