Table 2.  . Antifungal activity of free ebselen and ebselen-loaded in core-shell nanocapsules against Candida species.

Candida species	MIC (μg/ml)
	Free ebselen	Ebselen in Eb-NCS 3
Candida tropicalis	1.520	0.375
Candida albicans	0.190	0.094
Candida glabrata	0.024	0.094
Candida parapsilosis	0.015	0.012

No growth inhibition of any Candida species was observed for Ebselen-free nanocapsules.

Eb-NC: Ebselen-loaded core-shell nanocapsule; MIC: Minimal inhibitory concentration (the lowest concetration of the tested antifungals that inhibited the visible growth of Candida cells after overnight incubation).
