The impact of fungal diseases and the development antimicrobial agents against pathogenic fungi have emerged as a main global healthcare challenge. In this study, antifungal activity silver-loaded hydroxyapatite (Ag/HAP) nanocomposites (NCs) with different Ag content synthesized by one-pot microwave-assisted solvothermal method was evaluated sensitive resistant Candida species. NCs' composition morphology were characterized X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy,...
Abstract Dermatomycosis is an infection with global impacts caused especially by dermatophytes and Candida species. Current antifungal therapies involve drugs that face fungal resistance barriers. This clinical context emphasizes the need to discover new agents. Herein, potential of 10 curcumin analogs was evaluated against four dermatophyte The most active compound, 3,3’-dimethoxycurcumin, exhibited minimum inhibitory concentration values ranging from 1.9‒62.5 15.6‒62.5 µg ml−1 species,...
Dermatomycoses are typical hair, skin, or nail infections caused mainly by dermatophytes and nondermatophytes: Trichophyton, Microsporum, Epidermophyton, Candida. In addition to the esthetical impact, pain, deformity, these mycoses can be a source of severe disease. The high cost treatment, toxicity, emergence resistant infectious agents justifies research into new drugs. This work evaluates fungicidal activity nanocomposites (NCs) based on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) loaded with silver...
Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis that affects animals and humans. Varying in severity, occurrences range from local lesions to systemic involvement. It caused by thermodimorphic saprobic fungi the Sporothrix pathogenic clade. This study aimed identify species sexual idiomorph distribution patterns responsible for diagnosed cases of sporotrichosis São José do Rio Preto, Brazil. We included 188 isolates sp. feline 27 human origin, which underwent molecular identification genotyping...
Onychomycoses are nail infections that require prolonged therapy and have high recurrence rates. Dermatophytes the main etiological agents of these infections, followed by yeasts non-dermatophyte filamentous fungi. The limited antifungal arsenal used to treat onychomycosis change in susceptibility profile contribute chronicity recalcitrant infections. present study aimed determine activity extracts obtained from pure mixed cultures Candida parapsilosis, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, rubrum....
Kombucha is obtained by fermentation of tea and sugar bacteria yeast. This beverage has several beneficial effects, including antimicrobial activity. The objective this study was to evaluate the antifungal activity extracts against dermatomycosis-causing fungi. Different types (black, white, green tea) times (10, 20, 30 days) were evaluated. Kombuchas filtered, liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) determined clinical isolates dermatophytes...
Onychomycoses are nail infections caused primarily by dermatophytes fungi, yeasts, and other filamentous characterized persistent infections, prolonged therapy, high recurrence rates. In clinical practice, some of these occurrences present two or more microorganisms, the interactions among them can change chemical environment mediated small diffusible molecules, producing a competitive niche. The aim this study was to evaluate antifungal activity individual extracts pure cultures Candida...
Fungal infections caused by Candida species has increased significantly in recent years. Additionally, resistance to conventional therapy is an aggravating factor causing high morbidity and mortality, especially immunocompromised patients or those undergoing treatment with another antimicrobials. During the infection process, produces metabolites which can self-regulate population density, addition controlling several virulence factors exerting action on other microorganisms. In view of this...
The physical chemical interactions present in mixed microbiota niches induce changes the physiology of microorganisms, thereby affecting cellular viability; mechanism these should be explored, and vitro screening new antifungal molecules is essential for success therapeutic approaches.
Las onicomicosis, también conocidas popularmente como micosis ungueales, son infecciones fúngicas que afectan el lecho ungueal y tejidos adyacentes con hiperqueratosis, decoloración onicólisis, causadas por hongos dermatofitos, levaduras filamentosos no dermatofitos.Entre los destacan agente etiológico de esta micosis, del género Microsporum, Epidermophyton Trichophyton la levadura Candida albicans.La interacción entre diferentes ha sido objeto varios estudios, en ya se demostrado...
Onicomicoses, também conhecidas popularmente como micoses em unhas, são infecções fúngicas que afetam o leito ungueal e tecidos adjacentes com hiperqueratose, descoloração onicólise, causadas por fungos dermatófitos, leveduras filamentosos não dermatófitos. Dentre esses se destacam agente etiológico desta micose, os do gênero Microsporum, Epidermophyton Trichophyton a levedura Candida albicans. A interação entre diferentes tem sido objeto de diversos estudos, na qual já foi demonstrado...
