Abstract
Synchronized growth of Candida albicans was induced. The generation time of the synchronized cells was compared with those of nonsynchronized cells cultured in Sabouraud broth, Medium 199, and a synthetic synchronization medium. The mean generation time of the synchronized cultures was 3·2 hours while that of the nonsynchronized cultures ranged from 1·7 to 3·6 hours. The generation time in shake cultures of nonsynchronized cells was uniformly shorter than that of the corresponding aerated cultures. The generation time in Sabouraud medium was the shortest and that in synthetic synchronization medium was the longest with each method of incubation. On a induit une croissance synchronisée de Candida albicans. Le temps de génération des cellules synchronisées est comparé à celui des cellules non synchronisées obtenues sur bouillon de Sabouraud, milieu 199, et sur milieu synthétique de synchronisation. Le temps de génération est de 3,2 heures pour les cultures synchronisées tandis qu'il est compris entre 1,7 et 3,6 heures pour les cultures non synchronisées. Le temps de génération de cultures agitées est régulièrement plus court que celui de cultures correspondantes mais aérées. Le temps de génération est le plus court sur milieu de Sabouraud et le plus long sur milieu synthétique de synchronisation avec chaque méthode d'incubation.Keywords
