Abstract

Summary: Germination of Candida albicans was measured when blastospores were added to 10% rat serum and incubated for 2 h at 37°C. Sterols and steroids were tested for their ability to promote germination when added to serum. Oestriol, pregnanediol and pregnanetriol increased the percentage germination at concentrations of 0.001 — 1 μM. Luteinizing hormone similarly increased the percentage germination at concentrations of 0.001 — 1 μg/ml. 3‐isobutyl‐1‐methyl xanthine promoted germination at 1 — 100 μM.Zusammenfassung: Es wurde die Keimschlauchbildung von Candida albicans‐ Blastosporen unter Zusatz von 10% Rattenserum und bei 2 h Inkubation bei 37°C beobachtet. Sterole and Steroide wurden auf ihre Fähigkeit hin untersucht, nach Zusatz zum Serum die Keimschlauchbildung zu fördern. Östriol, Pregnandiol and Pregnantriol erhöhten den Prozentsatz der Keimschlauchbildung bei Konzentrationen von 0.001 — 1 μM. Das Gelbkörperreifungshormon erhöhte den Keimschlauchprozent in Konzentrationen von 0.001 — 1 μg/ml. 3‐Isobutyl‐1‐methylxanthin begünstigte die Keimschlauchbildung im Bereich von 1 — 100 μM.
