The Inhibitory Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on Clinical Isolates of Malassezia in Dogs

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Zinc oxide nanoparticles inhibit the growth and virulence of Malassezia pachydermatis clinical isolates from dogs. ZnO NPs exhibit potent fungicidal activity at low concentrations (MIC 3.90–7.81 ppm) and significantly downregulate the expression of Phospholipase A2 and Aspartyl proteinase genes, key virulence factors. This demonstrates the potential of
