Resumo: Mikania hirsutíssima (family), commonly known in Brazil by the name of "cipó-cabeludo", is widely used in folk medicine. The antimicrobial activities have already been investigated, however, no studies have been carried out to evaluate the plant's antifungal activities. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the antifungal activity of Mikania cf hirsutissima extract in clinical isolates and standard strains of Candida albicans resistant to fluconazole and itraconazole. After the collection of Mikania cf hirsutissima, it was dried, crushed and weighed, leaving the material on waste in absolute alcohol. After the rest, the crude extract of the stem and leaf was obtained. Clinical isolates of Candida albicans and standard strains were used. Different ethanolic concentrations of leaves and stems were used. To determine the in vitro antioxidant activity of the ethanol extract, the DPPH free radical method was applied. The antifungal activity of ethanolic extracts in Candida albicans strains showed satisfactory results, where the 100 mg/mL stem extract showed average halos of 4.5 mm. All strains were resistant to the antifungals itraconazole and fluconazole. The extract concentrations tested for the evaluation of antioxidant activity showed antioxidant capacity compared to the standard of BHA. The results showed antifungal activity in Candida albicans isolates, where all parts showed fungicidal potential, even in those resistant to Fluconazole and Itraconazole. Thus, the positioning of these compounds in clinical practice may contribute to expand the possibilities of treating infections caused by this species of yeast.

Las actividades antimicrobianas ya han sido investigadas, sin embargo, no se han realizado estudios para evaluar las actividades antifúngicas de la planta. Por tanto, el objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la actividad antifúngica del extracto de Mikania cf hirsutissima en aislados clínicos y cepas estándar de Candida albicans resistentes a fluconazol e itraconazol. Después de la colecta de Mikania cf hirsutissima, se secó, trituró y pesó, dejando el material de desecho en alcohol absoluto. Luego del reposo se obtuvo el extracto crudo de tallo y hoja. Se utilizaron aislados clínicos de Candida albicans y cepas estándar. Se utilizaron diferentes concentraciones etanólicas de hojas y tallos. Para determinar la actividad antioxidante in vitro del extracto etanólico se aplicó el método de radicales libres DPPH. La actividad antifúngica de los extractos etanólicos en cepas de Candida albicans mostró resultados satisfactorios, donde el extracto de tallo de 100 mg/mL presentó halos promedio de 4,5 mm. Todas las cepas fueron resistentes a los antifúngicos itraconazol y fluconazol. Las concentraciones de extracto probadas para la evaluación de la actividad antioxidante mostraron capacidad antioxidante en comparación con el estándar de BHA. Los resultados mostraron actividad antifúngica en aislamientos de Candida albicans, donde todas las partes mostraron potencial fungicida, incluso en aquellas resistentes a Fluconazol e Itraconazol. Así, el posicionamiento de estos compuestos en la práctica clínica puede contribuir a ampliar las posibilidades de tratamiento de infecciones causadas por esta especie de levadura.Mikania hirsutíssima (família), comumente conhecida no Brasil pelo nome de "cipó-cabeludo", é amplamente utilizada na medicina popular. As atividades antimicrobianas já foram investigadas, entretanto, nenhum estudo foi realizado para avaliar atividades antifúngicas da planta. Portanto, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a atividade antifúngica do extrato de Mikania cf hirsutissima em isolados clínicos e cepas padrão de Candida albicans resistentes ao fluconazol e itraconazol. Após a coleta da Mikania cf hirsutissima foi realizada a secagem, trituração e pesagem, deixando o material em refugo em álcool absoluto. Posteriormente ao descanso ocorreu a obtenção do extrato bruto do caule e da folha. Foram utilizados isolados clínicos de Candida albicans e cepas padrão. Diferentes concentrações etanólicas de folhas e caule foram utilizadas. Para determinar a atividade antioxidante in vitro do extrato etanólico aplicou-se o método do radical livre DPPH. A atividade antifúngica dos extratos etanólicos em cepas de Candida albicans apresentou resultados satisfatórios, onde o extrato do caule de 100 mg/mL apresentou halos médios de 4,5 mm. Todas as cepas eram resistentes aos antifúngicos itraconazol e fluconazol. As concentrações de extrato testadas para avaliação da atividade antioxidante mostraram capacidade antioxidante em comparação com o padrão de BHA.
