Abstract

The ability of a killer yeast (Pichia anomala, UCSC 25F) to produce toxin in vivo was demonstrated, for the first time, in tissues of normal and immunosuppressed experimentally infected mice by means of a fluorescent antibody technique and a killer toxin specific monoclonal antibody. The possible significance of the findings is discussed.
