We sought to determine if Histoplasma capsulatum polysaccharide antigen (HPA) levels correlate with the extent of infection in murine of histoplasmosis. Separate groups of mice were inoculated intratracheally with varying numbers of H. capsulatum yeast cells. After 1 week, HPA levels and fungal burd
