The fluconazol is an antifungal commonly used in the treatment of Candida-associated denture stomatitis. However its success is limited, among other factors, by the presence of an extracellular matrix in Candida albicans biofilms. Thus, this study aims to investigate the extracellular matrix of biofilms of C. albicans developed on poly (methyl methacrylate) acrylic resin in the presence o…
Candida infections have high prevalence; therefore, better understanding of the development mechanisms of biofilms is required for the reduction of virulence and for more appropriated clinical management. The aim of this study was to analyse the virulence of Candida albicans biofilms developed under different conditions. The role of biomaterial surfaces, salivary pellicle, and stage of bi…
Denture liners present excellent tissue tolerance. However, one of the main problems associated with its use is Candida spp. colonization, which is the rationale why attempts have been incorporated antifungal agents in these materials, for example undecylenic acid (UDA). The purpose of this study is to verify the action of UDA released from denture liners on C. albicans and C. glabrata bi…
