Antifungal activity of propolis on different species of Candida
Abstract
Summary. Propolis is a resinous material collected by bees from the buds or other parts of plants. It is known for its biological properties, having antibacterial, antifungal and healing properties. The antifungal activity of propolis was studied in sensitivity tests on 80 strains of Candida yeasts: 20 strains of Candida albicans, 20 strains of Candida tropicalis, 20 strains of Candida krusei and 15 strains of Candida guilliermondii. The yeasts showed a clear antifungal activity with the following order of sensitivity: C. albicans>C. tropicalis>C. krusei>C. guilliermondii. Patients with full dentures who used a hydroalcoholic propolis extract showed a decrease in the number of Candida. Antimyzetische Aktivität von Propolis gegen verschiedene Candida‐Arten Zusammenfassung. Propolis ist ein harziges Material, das von Bienen aus Knospen oder anderen Pflanzenteilen gesammelt wird. Es ist durch seine biologischen Eigenschaften bekannt: antibakteriell, pilzhemmend, heilend. Die pilzhemmende Wirkung von Propolis wurde in Sensibilitätstests an 80 Candida‐Stämmen untersucht: 20 Stämme von C. albicans, C. tropicalis, C. krusei und 15 von C. guilliermondii. Es zeigte sich folgende Reihe abnehmender Empfindlichkeit der Hefen für Propolis: C. albicans > C. tropicalis >C. krusei >C. guilliermondii. Zahnprothesen‐Träger, die Propolis‐Extrakt benutzten, zeigten eine Abnahme der Candida‐Kolonisation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
