Inhibition of adhesion of C. albicans strains by Origanum vulgare essential oil. Cells were incubated without agitation for 4 h at 37 °C in presence or absence of treatments at the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) obtained previously according to methods. Then, non-attached cells were discarded, and percentage of adhesion was obtained considering untreated control as 100%. Bars represent the mean + SD of at least three independent experiments. *p < 0.1, ****p < 0.0001 with respect to control (vehicle, DMSO); ††††p < 0.0001 with respect to the indicated bar (two-way ANOVA). FCA: fluconazole, Nys: nystatin, O-EO: Origanum essential oil
