Miconazole has low toxicity, however, there is a high incidence resistance of Candida sp. In the search for new drugs or improve existing ones, the originating products of medicinal plants has been the target of constant studies. The aim of this work was to verifyinvitrosynergismand antifungal activity of miconazole associated with poligodial. Miconazole (MCZ) and Poligodial (P) were dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) 1% done successive dilutions of each product ranging from 25mg to 0,19mg/mL (Polygodial)(10-1 to 10-9mg / ml); 14mg to 0,10mg/mL (miconazole). Antifungal test were based by CLSI diffusion agar against C. albicans (ATCC 18804), C. albicans (LMB01) and C. albicans (LMB02), C. tropicalis (ATCC 18807),C. lusitaniae (ATCC 42720), C. krusei (ATCC 20405). The results had shown all compounds that were effective in inhibiting Candida species. However, the zones of inhibition in agar diffusion test were higher for Miconazole (16,83mm) and Polygodial (15,16mm) while the MIX showed lower inhibition zones (14,43mm) when compared with controls. MIX was more effective in MIC test, and lowest concentration were at 10-6 dilution (0,60mg / ml) compared to MCZ and P controls.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
