Table 3. Quantification of α-(1,3)-glucan in H. capsulatum yeast cells by anthrone assay.

Strain	Relative glucosepresent in F2 (%)
Parent+vector	100±3.34
ags1-Δ+vector	2.69±0.51
amy1-Δ+vector	13.36±1.31
amy1-Δ+pEC87	75.38±1.15
amy1-Δ+pEC90	72.11±1.78

^aSamples were normalized by preparing a fraction 2 aqueous solution (1 µg ul⁻¹).

^bData represent the average from triplicate samples ± standard deviation.
