Tetracycline Effects on Candida Albicans Virulence Factors
Figure 1
The effect of adding a very low concentration of tetracycline
to chemically defined growth medium (YNB) on overnight viable counts of 6
strains of yeast is shown. Three strains of yeast (GT188, 986, and GT132) were
previously known to be nonsensitive to 17β-estradiol (did not show increased
growth yield in the presence of M/L 17β-estradiol), and 3 strains (GT387, 397,
and GT142) were previously shown to be sensitive to growth yield stimulation in
the presence of 17β-estradiol. Standard deviations from
triplicate determinations are shown by error bars. White bars represent growth in YNB, and black
bars represent growth in YNB with 0.1 g/mL tetracycline.
