Antifungal activity of the honey flavonoid extract against Candida albicans

2012-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Candida albicans is the most prevalent dimorphic pathogen in humans. We investigated the potential protective effect of honey flavonoid extract (HFE) on Candida dimorphism induced by RPMI 1640 medium. Yeast to hyphal transition was dose dependently prevented when Candida cultures were treated with HFE for 6h (germ-tube formation) and 18h (hypha elongation). Since during hyphal growth remarkable amounts of reactive...
