Abstract In this study, phenotypic methods presented >80% agreement with the molecular identification of 59 Candida parapsilosis complex. Growth at 15% NaCl or pH 7.0 significantly reduced cfu-counts of Candida orthopsilosis, suggesting these conditions may support the development of phenotypic method...

Vesical fungus ball is a mobile, oval and echogenic mass as a result of accumulation of long and wide numerous hyphae. Fungal urinary tract infection incidence has increased notoriously and there are isolated yeast in 7 to 8% of urine cultures. Different species of Candida are cause of urinary tract infe...
Candida auris is a multidrug-resistant emerging yeast, which was responsible for
healthcare-associated infection outbreaks, and was cataloged as a new species in
2009, after being isolated from a patient’s ear canal secretion in Japan. Since the
notification of this first occurrence, numerous cases hav...
