1. Glucose concentration-dependent increase of melanin synthesis.
Glucose concentration-dependent increase of melanin synthesis. The concentration of glucose (%, wt/vol) in each culture is indicated by the numbers on the agar plates. S. brasiliensis strain 17307, grown at 22°C (A), and S. schenckii strain 23250, grown at 37°C (B), are representative isolates showing enhancement of melanization with increasing glucose amounts.
