Novel Colloidal Nanocarrier of Cetylpyridinium Chloride: Antifungal Activities on <i>Candida</i> Species and Cytotoxic Potential on Murine Fibroblasts

Novel Colloidal Nanocarrier of Cetylpyridinium Chloride: Antifungal Activities on <i>Candida</i> Species and Cytotoxic Potential on Murine Fibroblasts

Nanocarriers have been used as alternative tools to overcome the resistance of <i>Candida</i> species to conventional treatments. This study prepared a nanocarrier of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) using iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) conjugated with chitosan (CS), and assessed its ant...
