Title: [Comparative study of fungicidal activity in vitro of various quaternary ammonium compounds used in ophthalmology]. Author: Julien J, Timon-David P, Balansard G, Cornand G. Journal: J Fr Ophtalmol; 1982; 5(8-9):531-4. PubMed ID: 6754796. Abstract: A study was conducted to evaluate the antifungal activity in vitro of 5 quaternary ammonium compounds. N cetylpyridinium was found to be particularly active against Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus. The association of N cetylpyridinium and of neosynephrine, found in various eye drop compositions, resulted in potentation of the antifungal activity of this quaternary ammonium.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
