Figure 1.

Appearance of C. albicans blastospores treated with oleuropein following staining with ethidium bromide and acridine orange according to the fluorescent-dye exclusion method: viable normal blastospores excluded ethidium bromide, and their nuclei were bright green with an intact structure. Non-viable cells had orange to red colored chromatin with organized structure. Apoptotic cells were bright green with highly condensed or fragmented nuclei.
