Silver Perchlorate is a light-sensitive mineral salt with the formula AgClO4. Silver perchlorate is created by heating a mixture of perchloric acid with silver nitrate. Alternatively, it can be prepared by the reaction between barium perchlorate and silver sulfate, or from the reaction of perchloric acid with silver oxide. Silver perchlorate is noteworthy for its solubility in aromatic solvents such as benzene and toluene. Silver Perchlorate is also amazingly soluble in water, up to 500 g per 100 mL of water. Similar to silver nitrate, silver perchlorate is an effective reagent for replacing halides ligands with perchlorate, which is a weakly or non-coordinating anion. The use of silver perchlorate in chemical synthesis has declined due to concerns about explosiveness of perchlorate salts.

AgClO4 (Sigma) was dissolved in sterile H2O and antifungal susceptibility testing was performed with C. albicans using RPMI medium (Sigma) supplemented with 2% (w/v) glucose. Susceptibility testing was carried out in triplicate on three independent occasions and results are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. The MIC of 2.5 g/ml represents the concentration of AgClO4 required to inhibit cell growth by 50%. For all experiments, cells were exposed to the AgClO4 at concentrations corresponding to MIC value.
