Effect of sodium chloride on candidacidal activity of MUC7 12-mer and Hsn5 12-mer, determined by killing assay. MUC7 12-mer (blue column) or Hsn5 12-mer (red column) (at a final concentration of 25 μM) were incubated with C. albicans (105 cells/ml) in 10 mM Na-PB containing NaCl (6.25–150 mM). The killing activities were determined by viable counting on SDA, comparing the number of colonies at each salt concentration to those of the agent-free control. Data represents two independent experiments, each performed in duplicate.
