“The combination of the ethanol extract and hexane fraction with amphotericin B and essential oil enhanced their antifungal activity, reducing the concentration of each substance needed to kill 100% of the inoculum.”
“However, Amphocil and ABPLC, but not Fungizone, when dispersed in an aqueous solution containing 5 to 25% ethanol , induced a statistically significant improvement in lesion size from week 2 or 3 onward (a total of 15 mg of AmB per kg of body weight was applied over 3 weeks).”
“With exponential phase cells, in the presence of AmB , the consumption of glucose and the production of ethanol , trehalose, and glycerol continuously decreased with time, and after 25 min, the metabolism was blocked.”

“In general the presence of 10(-6) M AMB reduces the glucose consumption and the ethanol production while favouring the glycerol and trehalose formation.”
“ Amphotericin B has been found to exert a marked influence on the glucose consumption and the production of all metabolites; for example, at 1 microM, the glucose consumption and the production of ethanol decrease while the production of glycerol and trehalose increases.”
