Popis: | Objectives To compare biofilm-forming ability; hydrolytic enzymes and ethanol-derived acetaldehyde production of oral Candida isolated from the oral cancer and matched non-oral cancer patients. Material and Methods Fungal biofilms were grown in RPMI-1640 medium and biofilm- mass and -activity were assessed using crystal-violet staining and XTT-salt reduction assays, respectively. Phospholipase, proteinase and esterase production was measured using agar plate method, while fungal acetaldehyde production was assessed via gas-chromatography. Results Candida isolated from oral cancer patients demonstrated significantly higher biofilm mass (p=0.031), biofilm metabolic activity (p |
