Abstract

ABSTRACT Zygomycosis was induced by injecting CD-1 mice with 5 mg of intraperitoneal deferoxamine and then 10 6 CFU of intravenous and intrasinus Rhizopus arrhizus . The addition of hyperbaric oxygen (2.0 atm absolute twice daily) to amphotericin B did not improve survival over that achieved with amphotericin B and placebo air treatments.
