Antifungal insect extract,molecular model. This molecule is being investigated as a candidate for a new fungicidal drug. It was extracted from a Chinese insect and was found to eradicate the fungus Candida albicans living in the human digestive tract. C. albicans is a yeast fungus that can cause opportunistic infections,such as thrush,in immunocompromised individuals. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (light blue),hydrogen (white),chlorine (green),nitrogen (dark blue) and oxygen (red) | |
