Anti-biofilm Action of Extract, Cytotoxic Potential and Effects on Acrylic Denture Surface.

Considering the challenge to control -associated denture stomatitis, the search for antifungal substances derived from natural sources has become a trend in the literature. In this study the following effects of extract (CAE) were investigated: action against biofilms of , its cytotoxic potential, and changes caused in acrylic resin. The CAE was characterized by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).

In vitro Effects of Lemongrass Extract on Candida albicans Biofilms, Human Cells Viability, and Denture Surface.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether immersion of a denture surface in lemongrass extract (LGE) has effects on C. albicans biofilms, human cell viability and denture surface. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal fungicidal concentration (MFC) were performed for LGE against C.
