Title: Antifungal activity of bifunctional sphingolipids. Intramolecular synergism within long-chain alpha,omega-bis-aminoalcohols.

Authors: Nicholas GM, Li R, MacMillan JB, Molinski TF.

Abstract: The in vitro antifungal activity of a series of alpha,omega-bifunctionalized aminoalcohols against Candida glabrata was measured. The dimeric bi-functionalized lipids exhibited activity about approximately 10-fold higher higher than D-sphingosine, which is a larger factor than expected from the simple additive effects of vicinal aminoalcohols groups.
