Abstract
2-(3,4-Dimethyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole-2-yl)-1-methylethyl pentanoate, an antifungal compound, was found to be nontoxic to RAW cells up to a concentration of 312.5 microg/ml, whereas amphotericin B was lethal to all cells at 37.5 microg/ml. The treatment of Aspergillus fumigatus-infected mice with a dose of 200.0 mg of compound/kg of body weight increased their survival rate by 60%, with a decrease in CFU in organ tissues. The protection afforded by the compound against experimental aspergillosis was found to be dose dependent.
