Scanning electron microscopy of Candida albicans cells treated with L12P and L18R peptides. Approximately 4 × 105 yeast cells were incubated without (panels A and B, controls) or with the selected peptides (125 μg/ml) (panels C and D, cells treated with peptide L12P; panels E and F, cells treated with peptide L18R) for 60 min. Masses of debris and cell leakage (panels C, E, F), and gross alterations in cell surface (panels D and E) were observed after treatment with both peptides. Bar: 1 μm.
