Impact of brief exposure to antifungal agents on the post-antifungal effect and hemolysin activity of oral Candida albicans
AbstractPost-antifungal effect (PAFE) of Candida and its production of hemolysin are determinants of candidal pathogenicity. Candida albicans is the foremost aetiological agent of oral candidosis, which can be treated with polyene, azole, and echinocandin antifungals. However, once administered, the...
