Comparative susceptibility of four kinds of pathogenic fungi to amphotericin B and amphotericin B methyl ester.
The activity of amphotericin B methyl ester was compared with that of amphotericin B, using Candida albicans (34 isolates), Torulopsis glabrata (12 isolates), Filobasidiella neoformans (stat. conid. Cryptococcus neoformans) (14 isolates), and Coccidioides immitis (37 isolates) and tube dilution in a totally synthetic, completely defined medium (SAAMF) with inocula of 10(4) colony-forming units ...
متن کاملComparative in vitro antifungal activity of amphotericin B and amphotericin B methyl ester.
The in vitro antifungal activity of amphotericin B methyl ester (AME), a water-soluble derivative of amphotericin B, was compared to that of the parent compound against a variety of pathogenic and potentially pathogenic fungi. AME has a significant antifungal activity, but the activity of AME was slightly lower than that of amphotericin B. Among the yeast-like organisms, only the yeast cells of...
متن کاملThe interaction of amphotericin B methyl ester with protoplasts of Candida albicans.
The interaction of amphotericin B methyl ester (AME) with protoplasts of Candida albicans was measured indirectly by following the incorporation of [U-14C]phenylalanine into the acid-insoluble material. The inhibitory effects of AME at the minimum inhibitory concentration were prevented by the addition of 85 mM-KCl and 45 mM-MgCl2, as shown by Liras & Lampen (1974) for Saccharomyces cerevisiae....
متن کاملComparison of amphotericin B and N-D-ornithyl amphotericin B methyl ester in experimental cryptococcal meningitis and Candida albicans endocarditis with pyelonephritis.
Amphotericin B and N-D-ornithyl amphotericin B methyl ester were compared for therapeutic efficacies against experimentally induced cryptococcal meningitis and Candida albicans endocarditis with pyelonephritis in rabbits. Antifungal activity of the two polyenes in vitro was similar for the yeasts used in these experiments. N-D-ornithyl amphotericin B methyl ester gave a slightly higher concentr...
