    Antifungal effect of oral rinses against Candida strain Albicans – In Vitro study in Lima, 2022
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-04-15) Sanchez Ugarte, Frank Cornelio; Marroquín García, Lorenzo Enrique
    The purpose of this study is to determine the antifungal effect of oral mouthwashes against a Candida albicans strain. The type of research is applied, analytical, with a quantitative approach, experimental in-vitro design, and longitudinal prospectively. This test was conducted on 30 Petri dishes with Candida albicans, using antibiotic discs impregnated with CHX at 0.12%, CPC at 0.07%, CHX at 0.12%, and CPC at 0.05%. The inhibition zones were measured in millimeters using a digital Vernier caliper. The antifungal efficacy of CHX at 0.12% was observed at 24 hours (19.72mm), 48 hours (19.61mm), and 72 hours (19.48mm). The averages for CPC at 0.07% at 24 hours (16.19mm), 48 hours (16.08mm), and 72 hours (15.96mm) were also noted. Additionally, the averages for CHX at 0.12% and CPC at 0.05% at 24 hours (14.40 mm), 48 hours (14.29mm), and 72 hours (14.18mm) were observed. It is concluded that CHX 0.12% was the most effective mouthwash against Candida albicans, followed by the antibiotic Amphotericin B.
