  1. aAntifungal activity was evaluated by measuring the diameter of inhibition zone (DIZ) of the seven candidal species. The concentration of B. javanica seeds extract was standardised at 100 mg/ml. CHX represents a positive control.
  2. bValues are determined based on three determinations performed in triplicate (n = 9).
