Descripción
The research of alternative substances to treat infections caused by Candida species is a need. Aromatic plants have the ability to produce secondary metabolites, such as essential oils (EO). The antimicrobial properties of Aloysia triphylla (L`Her.) Britton (cedrón) EO has been previously described. The aims of this work were to determine the antimicrobial activity and the effect on the cell structure of the EO of A. triphylla against Candida sp isolated from human illnesses. The EO was obtained by hydrodistilation of A. triphylla leaves. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was performed with microdilution method and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) was determined. A. triphylla EO´s showed antifungal activity against all yeast: C.albicans, C.dubliniensis, C.glabrata, C.krusei, C.guillermondii, C.parapsilosis and C tropicalis which were resistant to fluconazol (150 mg/ml). The range of MIC values was from: 35 to 140 µg/ml and the MFC: 1842 to 2300µg/ml. The time of killing at the MFC against C. albicans (3 x 105 UFC/ml) was 140 min. The dates of OD620 and OD260 suggest lysis and loss of absorbing material, respectively. The HROM shows distortion in morphology and shape of the cell, with large vacuoles in the cytoplasm. These studies clearly show that A. triphylla EO is a promising alternative for the treatment of candidiasis.
