(Alecrim) sobre cepas de Candida albicans e C. tropicalis, envolvidas com infecções da cavidade oral. Para tanto, 16 cepas de Candida de origem clínica e de referência foram utilizadas para determinação da concentração inibitória mínima (CIM), utilizando a técnica da microdiluição. Miconazol e nistatina foram utilizados como controles positivo… Show more
