          Abstract

          Biofilm of Candida tropicalis denote as a complex cellular congregation with major implication in pathogenesis. This lifestyle of fungus as a biofilm can inhibit immune system and antifungal therapy in treatment of infectious disease especially medical device associated chronic disease. In this study effects of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and EDTA were evaluated on C. tropicalis biofilm by using different techniques. ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized from Egg albumin.
