Candida parapsilosis is a fungal pathogen that poses a significant threat to global health due to its ability to induce serious infections, often resulting in high mortality rates in several countries. Clearly, infection prevention strategies, including rigorous hand and environmental disinfection, are crucial to controlling Candida transmission. However, there is increasing recognition o…
Candida and Staphylococcus species can cause hospital-acquired infections due to their ability to inhabit and form biofilms in the host or on abiotic surfaces in polymicrobial interactions. Despite the fact that health establishments prioritize the application of disinfection programs to minimize the risk of contamination, the literature shows little disinfectant efficiency on biofilms. I…
Candida species are associated with surface or systemic infections that challenge public health in the face of emerging resistance to antifungal agents for clinical use. Among the potential sources for new antifungal agents, we highlight the antimicrobial properties of essential oils extracted from medicinal plants and plants of the Copaifera genus. In this context, this work will aim to …
Bacteria and fungi form highly structured, often surface-associated, communities termed biofilms. Environmental factors such as pH, temperature, nutrients and oxygen availably added to genes expression, which enhanced or inhibited the metabolic pathways that have influence in adaptation of the planktonic to biofilm growth mode of microorganisms. However, interactions between bacteria-fung…
Thrichophyton rubrum and Tricophyton mentagrophytes are dermatophyte or keratinolytic fungi because they have the ability to invade, colonize and feed on keratin-rich tissues of both humans and animals and are biofilm formers, which has been hindering treatments with antifungals, even generating a rate of high reinfection. In this context, the development of new agents with different mech…
The increasing incidence of hospital infections caused by Candida parapsilosis requires innovative strategies for prevention and control. The combination of traditional antiseptics with plant compounds aims to maximize efficacy, minimize potential adverse effects, and contribute to more sustainable practices. Thus, evaluating the effectiveness of antiseptics such as chlorhexidine and tric…
Candida parapsilosis is a fungal pathogen that poses a significant threat to global health due to its ability to induce serious infections, often resulting in high mortality rates in several countries. Its ability to persist on surfaces can lead to outbreaks in healthcare facilities. Clearly, infection prevention strategies, including rigorous hand disinfection, are crucial to controlling…
Candida and Staphylococcus species can cause hospital-acquired infections due to their ability to inhabit and form biofilms on the host or on abiotic surfaces in polymicrobial interactions. Despite health establishments prioritizing the application of disinfection programs to minimize the risk of contamination, the literature shows little efficiency of disinfectants in these environments,…
