Abstract excerpt
Variant colony formation by Candida albicans has been described and the phenomenon of phenotypic switching has been studied extensively. Whereas the microstructure of non-variant colonies has been investigated by scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM), the relationship between switched variant colonies and microstructure has not been described. The object of this study was to investigate and compared by SEM the...
