Abstract:The extracts of five invasive plants were investigated for antifungal and antibiofilm activities against Candida albicans, C. glabrata, C. krusei, and C. parapsilosis. The antifungal activity was evaluated using the microdilution assay and the antibiofilm effect by measurement of the metabolic activity. Ethanol and ethanol‐water extracts of Reynoutria japonica leaves inhibited 50 % of planktonic cells at 250 μg mL−1 and 15.6 μg mL−1, respectively. Ethanol and ethanol‐water extracts of Baccharis halimifolia inh… Show more
