BACKGROUND: Dermatophytosis is the common cutaneous infections in humans and animals, which is caused by the keratinophylic fungus called dermatophytes. In recent years, drugs resistance in pathogenic fungi, including dermatophyte strains to the current antifungals have been increased. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the antifungal efficacy of AgNPs against , and . MATERIALS AND METHODS: The antifungal susceptibility of nanosilver particles compared with griseofulvin (GR). Its efficacy was investigated against three strains of dermatophytes by both agar dilution and broth microdilution test (BMD). RESULTS: The average minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) AgNPs on , and M. gypseum were 200, 180 and 170 μg.mL, respectively. Whereas these strains showed MIC of 25, 100 and 50 μg.mL for GR. CONCLUSIONS: Our finding indicated that the AgNPs was less active than GR but it had anti-dermatophytic effect.
背景:皮肤癣菌病是人和动物常见的皮肤感染,由称为皮肤癣菌的嗜角质真菌引起。近年来,包括皮肤癣菌菌株在内的致病真菌对当前抗真菌药物的耐药性有所增加。 目的:本研究旨在评估纳米银颗粒对[具体菌株1]、[具体菌株2]和[具体菌株3]的抗真菌效果。 材料与方法:将纳米银颗粒的抗真菌敏感性与灰黄霉素(GR)进行比较。通过琼脂稀释法和肉汤微量稀释法(BMD)研究其对三株皮肤癣菌的疗效。 结果:纳米银颗粒对[具体菌株1]、[具体菌株2]和石膏样小孢子菌的平均最低抑菌浓度(MIC)分别为200、180和170μg/mL。而这些菌株对灰黄霉素的MIC分别为25、100和50μg/mL。 结论:我们的研究结果表明,纳米银颗粒的活性低于灰黄霉素,但具有抗皮肤癣菌的作用。
