Comparison of the antifungal activities between antifungal drugs and safflower oil on the tested fungal species. Values measured represent diameters of fungal growth inhibition zone (mm). Voriconazole (VCZ) and Amphotericin B were used as positive controls. Safflower oil treatment significantly reduced the percentage of spores’ germination and branching of the germ tubes of the tested fungal strains.
