Dioscin Inhibits Virulence Factors of Candida albicans

Figure 2

Antibiofilm activities of dioscin against biofilm formation (a) and development (b) of C. albicans. The duration of treatment for both formation and development of biofilms was 24 h. Viability of biofilms treated was detected by XTT reduction assay. (c) Under biofilm-forming conditions, dioscin treatment did reduce cell numbers at sub-MIC concentrations. CFUs were counted by diluting cells in each well and plating on YPD agars. means p < 0.05.
