THE INFLUENCE OF EXPERIMENTAL CONDITIONS ON THE RESULTS OF INVITRO TESTS FOR ANTIFUNGAL ACTION (WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE EFFECT OF MAINTAINING SOLUBILITY OF THE AGENTS)

[摘要] Expts. are described which indicate that the growth-inhibitory activity of undecylenic acid against pathogenic fungi in vitro is dependent upon pH and solubility. Thus the types of vehicles and of media chosen ean be of decisive influence on the results of studies of antifungal action.
