Comparison between allicin and fluconazole in Candida albicans biofilm inhibition and in suppression of HWP1 gene expression
Candida albicans is an opportunistic human pathogen with the ability to differentiate and grow in filamentous forms and exist as biofilms. The biofilms are a barrier to treatment as they are often resistant to the antifungal drugs. In this study, we investigated the antifungal activity of allicin, a...
