RESUMO
Deoxycholate amphotericin B (DAMB) and amphotericin B lipid complex (ABLC) additively augmented the fungicidal activity of pulmonary alveolar macrophages against the conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus. DAMB, ABLC, and liposomal amphotericin B similarly displayed additive effects with polymorphonuclear leukocytes in damaging the hyphal elements of A. fumigatus.
