Abstract:This study aimed to determine the antifungal and antibio lm activity of Agelas dispar on bio lmproducing of Candida species. Methanolic extract of A. dispar was obtained and the fraction Ag2 showed inhibitory activity for all the 13 Candida strains tested, in concentrations ranging from 2.5 mg/ml to 0.15625 mg/ml. Antifungal activity of fungicidal nature was seen between 5.0 mg/ml and 0.3125 mg/ml of extract against the strains. All strains were classi ed as bio lm producers. Methanolic extract Ag2 was tested … Show more
