FIG. 1.

Growth curve of control (—) and drug-exposed (---) molds showing PAFE. The mold was grown in RPMI 1640 medium incubated at 37°C during 48 h. Following drug exposure, the curve was shifted to the right when PAFE is present. PAFE was quantified by using OD₀, OD₂₀, and OD₅₀. The time needed to reach each criterion for the control was subtracted from that for the drug-exposed conidia (C). PAFE was considered to be present when the upper 95% CI of the control growth curve (A) did not overlap with the lower 95% CI of the drug-exposed-conidia growth curve (B).
