The mechanism of action of the antifungal agent 3-(4-bromophenyl)-5-acyloxymethyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-one against Candida albicans was investigated by flow cytometry, using propidium iodide, DiBAC4(3), and FUN-1 as the fluorescent dyes. A related but less active agent, together with amphotericin B and fluconazole, was tested in parallel for comparison of the results. The incrustoporine derivative was found to have a potent fungicidal activity on C. albicans, resulting in damage of cell membrane.
