In-vitro effects of orange peel extracts on candida albicans, a major source of fungal infections

Although it is a normal component of our microbiota, Candida albicans can also cause systemic and mucosal infections, which in those with diabetes, malnutrition, and immune system compromises can be fatal. These are the most prevalent species of nosocomial pathogens that can become resistant to antifungal medicines. The findings of this study also shown the capability of ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to discern between the antifungal effects of various doses of orange extract samples on the species composition of Candida albicans.
