Effect of substrate surface hydrophobicity on the adherence of yeast and hyphalCandida

Abstract: A biofilm composed of various microorganisms including Candida is found on denture surfaces and is likely to be involved in the etiology of denture-induced stomatitis. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of hydrophobic interactions in candidal adherence to acrylic surfaces, particularly that of the hyphal form of Candida albicans. Candida clinical isolates were used. Acrylic plates coated with carrageenan and hydrocolloid (Hitachi chemical, Tokyo, Japan) were used as a hydrophilic substratum. A m… Show more

“…Several factors contribute to the development of Candida albicans: age of denture, salivary flow, and denture base material. As the adherence of Candida albicans to denture surfaces is now recognized as an important phase in its colonization and pathogenesis, inhibiting the early adherence process would be a significant measure in the prevention of stomatitis 3) . The adherence of Candida albicans is influenced by many factors, such as surface roughness, salivary pellicle, surface free energy, and the type of denture base material [4][5][6][7] .…”

“…Muitos fatores que afetam a adesão de Candida spp. foram descritos, incluindo interações hidrofóbicas e rugosidade da superfície de acrílico dos materiais protéticos 6 . No que tange à virulência de Candida, a capacidade de adesão ao acrílico é uma condição prévia para a colonização e o desenvolvimento de biofilmes em superfícies de dentaduras.…”

“…No que tange à virulência de Candida, a capacidade de adesão ao acrílico é uma condição prévia para a colonização e o desenvolvimento de biofilmes em superfícies de dentaduras. Portanto, a inibição da adesão poderia ser eficaz para tratar ou prevenir a EP 6 . Alguns estudos focam na tentativa de modificação das resinas acrílicas para diminuir o fator de adesão de Candida spp.…”
