TABLE 5.
Determinations of polysaccharide shedding for cryptococcal strains ATCC 24067 and ATCC 3501
| Strain | Druga | GXM/organism densityb |
|---|---|---|
| ATCC 24067 | ⊘ | 9.2 × 10−6 |
| FLU | 8.5 × 10−5 | |
| AmB | 1.1 × 10−4 | |
| ATCC 3501 | ⊘ | 5.3 × 10−6 |
| FLU | 2.4 × 10−5 | |
| AmB | 7.3 × 10−5 |
a
Absence of antibiotics (⊘) or presence of either AmB or FLU at 0.5 the MIC is indicated.
b
Normalized value of GXM (in micrograms per milliliter) divided by the number of organisms per milliliter in the culture from which the supernatant was collected.
