Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

A composition of amphotericin B and dialdehyde dextran was used for the therapy of male C57Bl/6 mice with systemic candidiasis. The composition was more effective than free amphotericin B. A decrease in the number and size of candidal granulomas in the lungs was more significant after therapy with the study composition (compared to free amphotericin B).
