Table 5. Compounds 13 and 33 exert synergy with fluconazole against in vitro Candida albicans biofilm*.
Compound | EC25 | EC25 with Fluconazole | FIC |
13 | 6.30±0.00 | 1.20±0.57 | 0.26±0.09 |
33 | 4.71±2.25 | 1.20±0.57 | 0.32±0.00 |
FIC index = [EC25(A in combination)]/[EC25(A alone)]+[EC25(B in combination)]/[EC25(B alone)], where A is compound 13 or 33 and B is fluconazole. An index of <0.5 indicates synergism. The results are averages ± SD of two independent experiments.
