Figure 3From: A quantitative real-time RT-PCR assay for mature C. albicans biofilmsComparison of the viable colony counts (CFU), XTT and real-time RT-PCR assays in testing susceptibility of planktonic cells to fluconazole (A) and caspofungin (B). Candida yeast cells were exposed to a wide range of concentrations of the antifungal drugs for 24 hours, followed by the CFU, XTT, or EFB1 qRT-PCR assays. Error bars represent SD of triplicate experiments.Back to article page
