The susceptibility of Candida albicans to the presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, its heat-labile and heat-stable secreted factors. Candida albicans hyphae were inoculated into 10 mL cell-free conditioned medium from a 4-day C. albicans–P. aeruginosa coculture (Pa–Ca CM). Hyphae were incubated either with (open circles) or without (closed circles) the addition of fresh P. aeruginosa. Hyphae were also inoculated into the same filtrate that had been heat treated to denature proteins (Pa–Ca HCM – closed squares) or into filtrate generated from a 4-day C. albicans-only culture as a control (Ca-only CM – broken line). Error bars are SD (n=3).
