FIG 2 .

TEMs of cell walls of wild-type C. albicans SC5314 cells revealing AmBisome liposomes encapsulating 15-nm-diameter colloidal gold particles (a to c) or AmBisome liposomal membrane studded with 1.6-nm gold particles (d and e). Control gold unencapsulated particles failing to enter the outer or inner cell walls are shown in panels f and g. Bars, 100 nm. The cartoon icons with orange spheres represent AmBisome liposomes, and the gold spheres represent 15-nm or 1.6-nm gold particles that were either encapsulated inside the liposome or present within the liposomal membrane, respectively. These liposomal reagents were imaged in the indicated panels.
