Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the in vitro antifungal activity of baicalein and its effect on energy-dependent efflux pumps of Candida species.

Methods: Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of baicalein was determined by broth microdilution assay (CLSI guidelines). MIC was defined as the lowest concentration of baicalein for 80% inhibition of visible growth when compared with control. Rhodamine 6G (R6G) efflux was evaluated to investigate the effect of …
