Effect of AC-PACs on adherence of C. albicans to acrylic resin disks. FITC-labeled C. albicans adhered to saliva-coated acrylic resin disks were quantified by measuring fluorescence in a microplate reader. Assays were done in triplicate and the means ± SD from three independent experiments were calculated. Data were performed as relative fluorescence units (RFU) obtained from the disks incubated with C. albicans and AC-PACs, and compared to control disks incubated with C. albicans alone. *, significantly lower than the value for the control (P < 0.05).
