Atomic force microscopy (AFM) to measure adhesion force on C. albicans to abiotic surfaces. C. albicans cells were lifted with an AFM cantilever and probed against an abiotic surface to measure the adhesion force. The adhesion force of cells treated with Filastatin (white bar) is shown in contrast to untreated cells and the edt1 −/− non-adherent mutant (black bars). Each force measurement is calculated from 35–50 trials, standard error bars displayed, p < 0.001. The graphic shows one representative experiment
