Results of the effect of amoebapore on the growth of different cryptococcal strains i.e., C. neoformans UOFS Y-1378 (has 3-hydroxy C9:0), C. gattii R265 (has no 3-hydroxy C9:0), C. neoformans LMPE 046 (has 3-hydroxy C9:0), and C. neoformans LMPE 101 (is acapsular and has no 3-hydroxy C9:0). When considering the growth results, it is evident that the strain with 3-hydroxy C9:0 was much more resistant to the effects of amoebapore when compared to the other three strains that do not have 3-hydroxy C9:0.
