Molecular Identification and Antifungal Susceptibility Pattern of Non-albicans Candida Species Isolated from Vulvovaginal Candidiasis
Background: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is an important health problem caused by Candida spp. The aim of this study was molecular identification, phylogenetic analysis, and evaluation of antifungal susceptibility of non-albicans Candida isolates from VVC. Methods: Vaginal secretion samples were collected from 550 vaginitis patients at Sayyad Shirazi Medical and Educational Center of Gorgan (...
متن کاملVulvovaginal Candidiasis due to non albicans Candida: its species distribution and antifungal susceptibility profile
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is the most common manifestation of genital candidiasis (Achkar and Bettina 2010). It is defined as signs and symptoms of inflammation of the vulva and vagina in the presence of Candida spp (Achkar and Bettina, 2010). Clinical manifestations of VVC are pruritus, hyperemia, vaginal discomfort and leucorrhea, burning, soreness, dyspareunia and vaginal or vulvar eryt...

متن کاملQuantitation of ergosterol content and gene expression profile of ERG11 gene in fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans
Background and Purpose: The frequency of opportunistic fungal infections in immunocompromised patients, especially by Candida species, has sharply increased in the last few decades. The objective of this study was to analyse the ergosterol content and gene expression profiling of clinical isolates of fluconazole resistant Candida albicans. Materials and Methods: Sixty clinical samples were ide...
متن کاملMolecular identification and in-vitro antifungal susceptibility testing of Candida species isolated from patients with onychomycosis
Background and Purpose: Candida species are the most opportunistic fungi affecting the nails and resulting in onychomycosis. In this study, we identified and evaluated in-vitro susceptibility of the recovered isolates against fluconazole (FLC), voriconazole (VRC), and clotrimazole (CLT) using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) M27-A3 document. Materials and Method...
