Candida albicansoften form polymicrobial biofilms along with pathogenic microbes. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were well known to have strong antimicrobial activity. However, their effect on polymicrobialbiofilms and the mechanism has never been reported. This study aimed to synthesize AgNPs and stu...
