FIG. 8.
Clearance of C. albicans from tissue after infection with strain SC5314 (solid lines) or the catalase-deficient mutant, CADW3 (dashed lines). Colony counts were done to determine average numbers of CFU per gram of tissue from the lungs (A), the liver (B), and the kidney (C). Inoculation of mice is described in the legend to Fig. 7. Closed symbols indicate the parental strain, SC5314, while open symbols represent the homozygous mutant strain, CADW3. Inocula consisted of 104 (▴ and ▵), 105 (⧫ and ◊), 106 (• and ○), 107 (▪ and □), and 108 (▾ and ▿) conidia.
