Quantification of Candida - Phagocytes Interaction Figure 4. Effect of heat-killing and UV-killing treatments of the fungal cells on the interactions with the J774 macrophages. Analysis of the interactions involving J774 macrophages and stationary-phase heat-killed (A) or UV-killed (B) yeasts over 24-hour time course experiments. Note that the yeasts uptakes were higher for UV-killed cells.
