Prevalence and in vitro antifungal susceptibility of Candida spp isolated from clinical specimens in São Paulo, Brazil
(1998-12-01)
We examined the prevalence and the in vitro susceptibility to antifungal drugs of Candida spp isolated from clinical specimens at our university hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. Among 6,417 samples studied, positive cultures, ...
Insights on the antifungal activity of amphiphilic derivatives of diethylaminoethyl chitosan against Aspergillus flavus
(2018-09-15)
In this study, the antifungal activity of chitosan derivatives against A. flavus was studied to understand the contribution of the molecular mass (Mw) and of the hydrophobic and electrostatic forces to the inhibition of ...
Synthesis, characterization and antifungal activity of quaternary derivatives of chitosan on Aspergillus flavus
(2013-01-15)
Two series of new chitosan derivatives were synthesized by reaction of deacetylated chitosan (CH) with propyl (CH-Propyl) and pentyl (CH-Pentyl) trimethylammonium bromides to obtain derivatives with increasing degrees of ...

Biopolymeric Films of Amphiphilic Derivatives of Chitosan: A Physicochemical Characterization and Antifungal Study
(Mdpi, 2019-09-01)
The chemical modification of chitosan has been an active subject of research in order to improve the physicochemical and antifungal properties of chitosan-based films. The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiochemical ...
Virulence Factors and Antifungal Susceptibility in Candida Species Isolated from Dermatomycosis Patients
(2021-03-01)
Dermatomycoses caused by Candida spp. are increasingly common, however there are few reports in the literature regarding their epidemiology, pathogenesis and antifungal susceptibility of these fungal pathogens. This study ...
Brazilian copaifera species: Antifungal activity against clinically relevant candida species, cellular target, and in vivo toxicity
(2020-09-01)
Plants belonging to the genus Copaifera are widely used in Brazil due to their antimicrobial properties, among others. The re-emergence of classic fungal diseases as a consequence of antifungal resistance to available drugs ...
Anti-inflammatory activity of Vismia guianensis (Aubl.) Pers. extracts and antifungal activity against Sporothrix schenckii
(2017-01-04)
Ethnopharmacological relevance Vismia guianensis (Aubl.) Pers. is traditionally used in North and Northeast of Brazil for the treatment of dermatomycoses. Since the strategy associating immunomodulators with antifungal ...
Cationic surfactants as antifungal agents
(Springer, 2018-10-29)
Fungi—in being responsible for causing diseases in animals and humans as well as environmental contaminations in health and storage facilities—represent a serious concern to health security. Surfactants are a group of ...
