Enhancing Antifungal Efficacy and Stability of Nystatin Liposomes Through Chitosan and Alginate Layer-by-Layer Coating: In vitro Studies Against Candida albicans
This study successfully demonstrated that LBL-coated nystatin liposomes significantly enhanced the antifungal activity, stability, and delivery efficiency of the drug. This novel formulation strategy offers a promising approach to overcome the limitations of conventional antifungal therapies, potentially improving the treatment of fungal infections.
