Assessment of Ceragenins in Prevention of Damage to Voice Prostheses Caused by <i>Candida</i> Biofilm Formation

This study aimed to investigate the potential application of ceragenins (CSAs) as new candidacidal agents to prevent biofilm formation on voice prostheses (VPs). The deterioration of the silicone material of VPs is caused by biofilm growth on the device which leads to frequent replacement procedures...
