Rapid screening method for compounds that affect the growth and germination of Candida albicans, using a real-time PCR thermocycler.

Lucja M Jarosz1, Bastiaan P Krom.   

Abstract

We propose a screening method for compounds affecting growth and germination in Candida albicans using a real-time PCR thermocycler to quantify green fluorescent protein (GFP) fluorescence. Using P(ACT1)-GFP and P(HWP1)-GFP reporter strains, the effects of a wide range of compounds on growth and hyphal formation were quantitatively assessed within 3 h after inoculation.
