results the results of energy-dispersive x-ray demonstrated that the purified nps consisted of only se. in addition, transmission electron micrographs showed that 120- to 140-nm spherical se nps were the most common. an antifungal assay was performed with a standard clinical and laboratory standards institute broth microdilution method. minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) measurements of the...

in this research psedomonas fluorescens as a probiotic, sodium chloride, plant extract (terminalia catappa), malachite green and formalin as antifungal agents were used daily for 19 days on rainbow trout fertilized eggs in order to compare their survival with untreated fertilized eggs in control group. results showed that the percent of live eggs (eyed) after 19 days treatment with p. fluoresce...

Background and Purpose: Use of curcumin, as a promising antifungal agent, is considered an alternative treatment for fungal infections; however, the low solubility of this agent limits its efficacy. Accordingly, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo antifungal activities of dendrosomal nanocurcumin with improved solubility and bioavailability. Materials & Methods: The...

The lack of antifungal drugs with novel modes of action reaching the clinic is a serious concern. Recently a novel antifungal protein referred to as Blad-containing oligomer (BCO) has received regulatory approval as an agricultural antifungal agent. Interestingly its spectrum of antifungal activity includes human pathogens such as Candida albicans, however, its mode of action has yet to be eluc...
