Exploring the effects of zinc oxide nanoflakes synthesized from structurally diverse templates on cellular apoptosis and necrosis in Candida albicans

Key Points

• Nanoflakes impact cellular apoptosis and necrosis in Candida albicans, potentially enhancing treatment options.
• Zinc oxide nanoflakes significantly induce apoptosis, with observable effects on cell viability and growth.
• Assessment using templated synthesis reveals various structural influences on cellular responses.
• This work supports the potential of zinc oxide nanoflakes but calls for further biological assessments.
