Abstract
ICR mice were infected intranasally with arthroconidia of Coccicioides immitis. Mice were treated intravenously with amphotericin B deoxycholate (Fungizone) or an amphotericin B-lipid vehicle (AmBisome). Doses ranged from 0.05 to 1.0 mg kg-1. Lung weight, which parallels disease severity and fungal burden in this infection, was used as the index of protection. Both Fungizone and AmBisome were significantly and equally protective at 0.3 and 1.0 mg kg-1 body weight.Entities:
