Resumo

ABSTRACT Four Candida albicans isolates and six non- albicans Candida isolates were evaluated by time-kill methods to characterize the relationship between nystatin concentrations, the rate and extent of fungicidal activity, and the postantifungal effect (PAFE). Against Candida species, nystatin exhibits concentration-dependent fungicidal activity and a pronounced PAFE.
