Antifungal Activity of Coumarins
The antifungal activity of 40 coumarins was tested against the fungal strains: Candida albicans (ATCC 14053), Aspergillus fumigatus (ATCC 16913) and Fusarium solani (ATCC 36031), using the broth microdilution method. Osthenol showed the most effective antifungal activity among all the compounds tested, with a MIC value of 125 μg/ml for Fusarium solani ...

THE ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF DERMOSTATIN
Dermostatin is a polyene antibiotic which possesses a typical spectrum of antimicrobial activity. In vivo, by parenteral or oral administration, dermostatin was less effective than amphotericin B against Candida albicans. The in vivo activity of dermostatin was comparable to amphotericin B against Cryptococcus neoformans and Blastomyces dermatitidis ...
