Fungistasis of nanometer silvers synthesized by different methods on Candida al-bicans / 药学实践杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the in vitro fungistasis of nanometer silvers made by different methods on Candida al-bicans .Methods The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of Candida albicans strains stimulated to silver nanoparticles were determined by microdilution method .The combination effects of silver nanoparticles with fluconazole were determined by chess board check assay .Results The inhabitation effect of two kinds of silver nanoparticles were different on the growth of Candida albicans .Silver nanoparticles had a synergistic effect with fluconazole on Candida albicans .Conclusion The two kinds of silver nanoparticles had various antifungal activities in vitro and had a synergistic effect with fluconazole on Candida albicans .
