Identification of Candida Species Isolated from Hospitalized Patients with Candiduria

Background and objectives: The incidence of candiduria caused by Candida spp. has increased in recent years, particularly in hospitalized patients. Candiduria is most commonly caused by Candida albicans; however, an increase in the prevalence of non-albicans species has been observed during last decades. This study aimed at molecular identification of Candida species isolated from candiduria in...

Molecular 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...

Identification and antifungal susceptibility pattern of Candida species isolated from patients with nosocomial candiduria

Introduction: Nosocomial candiduria could be due to cystitis, pyelonephritis, or fungusball in the urinary tract system. Several reports have shown candidemia and upper urinarytract involvement as the complications of candiduria. The aim of this study was to assessnosocomial candiduria; identify Candida isolates and determine their drug susceptibilitypattern. Materials and Methods: Urine sample...

Antifungal susceptibility to azoles drugs in Candida species isolated from patients with onychomycosis

Background and Aim: Onychomycosis is an infection caused by yeast, filamentous and non-filamentous fungi, due to diverse conditions. This study aimed to investigate the pattern of azole susceptibility of candidate species isolated from Iranian patients in Tehran. Methods: After sampling from patients, identification of the isolated strains were performed with Candida chrom agar medium and PC...

Antifungal Susceptibility Testing with Etest for Candida Species Isolated from Patients with Oral Candidiasis

BACKGROUND The necessity of performing antifungal susceptibility tests is recently increasing because of frequent cases of oral candidiasis caused by antifungal-resistant Candida species. The Etest (BioMerieux, Marcy l'Etoile, France) is a rapid and easy-to-perform in vitro antifungal susceptibility test. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the minimal inhibitory concentratio...
