Fungal inhibition effect in the co-culture of S. apiospermum and S. boydii with B. cepacia, P. aeruginosa, and S. aureus. Bacterial and fungal isolates were co-cultured in a 1:1 ratio in nutrient broth for 24 h at 37 °C. After this time, the mixed co-cultures were treated with penicillin-streptomycin 1%, and fungal viability was measured by XTT, as showed for S. apiospermum (a) and S. boydii (b). Control means only the fungal growth, without bacteria cells. Bc, B. cepacia; Pa, P. aeruginosa; Sa, S. aureus. ****p < 0.0001
