Effect of iron chelation on cryptococcal morphology.

<p>The effect of iron chelation on cell body size was observed by the supplementation of TCM with the iron chelator Bathophenanthroline disulfonic acid (BPS) in TCM cultures inoculated at 10⁴ cells/mL cultures (A) and 10⁶ cells/mL cultures (B). The cells were incubated at 37°C overnight with 5% CO₂ without shaking. CT, control cells without BPS.
