Abstract
In recent years, the high frequency of fungal infections originating from Candida and dermatophyte strains has accelerated treatment attempts. Antimicrobial susceptibility test for poly (AN-co-VP) / copolymer, which we think could be an ideal drug in treatment interventions was evaluated with disk diffusion method and minimum inhibitor concentration. In the antimicrobial measurement data, it was determined that the poly (AN-co-VP) / coolymer dissolved in pure water is an significant inhibitory property against the growth of yeast (on Candida spp. with 11.33 ± 0.3 mm barrier area) and dermatophyte fungi (on Epidermophyton sp. and Trichophyton sp. with 12.33 ± 0.3 mm barrier area) (pKeywords
