Effects of Amphotericin B and Three Azole Derivatives on the Lipids of Yeast Cells of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis

Abstract
Yeast cells of five different strains of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis were obtained for partial analysis of lipid composition, and sterol content was determined quantitatively and qualitatively. The determinations were conducted with cells cultured in the presence and absence of amphotericin B and azole derivatives at levels below the MIC.
