anticandidal

5-Fluoroorotic acid is an inhibitor of thymidylate synthase. 5-Fluoroorotic is a selective agent in yeast molecular genetics.5-Fluoroorotic possesses a well-expressed anticandidal effect close to that of 5-fluorocytosine, as well as moderate antidermatophytal effects.

Anticandidal agent-1 (compound c2) is a potent, broad-spectrum anticandidal agent that inhibits biofilm formation by blocking hyphal elongation and filamentation, demonstrating activity against C. glabrata and C. albicans with MIC 50 values of 13.51 and 8.65 μg mL, respectively [1].

Taxoquinone has strong antibacterial effect, it could be used as a promising antibacterial agent in food industry to inhibit the growth of certain important foodborne pathogens. It (100 ug disc) displays potential anticandidal effect against Candia albica
