A study on phenotypic traits of Candida species isolated from blood stream infections and their in vitro susceptibility to fluconazole
Background & objectives: Fungal infections are increasing very rapidly. Candida is a major pathogen involved and constitutes a part of normal microflora of humans. This organism is a leading agent associated with blood stream infections. The present study involves phenotypic characterization of Candida isolates. The isolates were obtained from National Culture Collection of Pathogenic Fungi at ...
متن کاملCandida Blood Stream Infections in Neonates
Candida spp. are known to be the most common fungal pathogens isolated from blood cultures of neonates. The present study was undertaken to know the prevalence of candidemia in neonates and their antifungal susceptibility pattern. Candida isolates were speciated by using germ tube, carbohydrate assimilation and fermentation tests, CHROM agar and Dalmau plate culture method. Antifungal susceptib...
متن کاملPrevalence & susceptibility to fluconazole of Candida species causing vulvovaginitis.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Vulvovaginal candidiasis is an important cause of morbidity in women of reproductive age. This study was carried out to determine the species prevalence and susceptibility pattern to fluconazole of yeasts isolated from the vagina of symptomatic women. METHODS This prospective study was conducted in a rural primary health care center of north India from May 2003 to April...
متن کاملAntenatal infections with Candida species
The clinical, pathological, and microbiological features of 18 pregnancies complicated by intrauterine infection with Candida sp. are described. Chorioamnionitis with Candida sp. can be recognised macroscopically at birth. Penetration of the umbilical cord and membranes is associated with an intense fetal inflammatory response. The infection characteristically presents in infants of very low bi...
