Abstract
The HD oil was evaluated against yeasts and dermatophyte strains, being more active against Cryptococcus neoformans, with MIC and MLC values of 0.64 μL/mL. Moreover, the oil revealed an important inhibitory effect on germ tube formation in C. albicans at sub-inhibitory concentrations. At the concentration of 1/16 MIC the inhibition of filamentation was more than 70% in comparison to untreated control cells.
