Abstract
The temperature association of exponential thermal death with exponential growth, observed in a strain of Candida albicans, was disrupted by 5-fluorocytosine which, at a concentration of 2 micrograms ml-1, shifted the maximum temperature for growth from 38 degrees C to 33 degrees C but did not affect thermal death.
