Abstract:
Objective To observe the ultrastructural changes of Candida albicans by the effect of oyster antibiosis protein which was extracted from muscle of oyster.Methods The colonies of candida albicans exposed to oyster antibiosis protein for 24 hours,with a blank control group and the differences of their ultrastructure were studied under electron microscope.Results After affected by oyster antibiosis protein for 4h,the cell walls were lacked and had reductus with pyknotic cytoplasm.16 hours later,most cells became global shape and their cytomatrix components were lost and some vacuoles appeared in the cytoplasm.24 hours later,the cell walls depleted and the cells spitted.Conclusion oyster antibiosis protein affected commendably the function of candida albicans.
