In Vitro With the treatment of Alexidine (10 µM, 24 hours), biofilm community can be decimated[1]. .With the treatment of Alexidine (0-60 μg/ml, 24 hours), Alexidine can kill HUVECs and lung A549 cells[1]. Cell Viability Assay Cell Line: C. albicans, C. auris, A. fumigatus[1] Concentration: 10 µM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Could significantly kill 80% of mature biofilm community. Cell Viability Assay Cell Line: HUVECs, lung A549 cells[1] Concentration: 0-60 μg/ml Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: resulted in 50% killing of HUVECs and lung A549 cells ( CC50 > 7.37 μg/ml ).
In Vivo With the treatment of Alexidine (Jugular vein-catheterized, 48 hours, 3 µg/ml, once) for 48 hours, Alexidine can decimate preformed biofilms growing in the jugular vein catheters of mice[1]. Animal Model: 8-week-old C57BL/6 male mice Dosage: 3 µg/ml Administration: Jugular vein-catheterized, 48 hours, 3 µg/ml, once Result: Inhibited 67% of fungal biofilm growth and viability, compared to the control untreated biofilms.
