FIG. 4.

(A) Release of galf antigens (expressed as the amount of GM) and BG during growth of A. fumigatus on YNB medium supplemented with 100 mM of glucose as the carbon source in an Erlenmeyer flask. Each line is the mean value of a CAG⁺ and a CAG⁻ (GM) strain. The medium was buffered with MOPS at pH 7.4. (▴) Glucose concentration in culture filtrate (mM); (○) GM (ng/ml); (▪) BG (pg/ml). (B) Same as panel A, but the amounts of GM and BG are divided by serum cutoff values (CV) 0.5 ng/ml and 60 pg/ml, respectively.
