Isolation and Identification of Candida Species from the Oral Cavity Using CHROMagar Candida
CHROMagar Candida is a new chromogenic culture medium that is used for the isolation and direct identification of some of the most clinically important yeast pathogens on the basis of colony colour. The aim of the study was to isolate and identify Candida species from the oral cavity with CHROMagar Candida. Samples (158) from 68 orthodontic patients wearing upper removable orthodontic applianc...
متن کاملDirect isolation of Candida spp. from blood cultures on the chromogenic medium CHROMagar Candida.
CHROMagar Candida is a selective and differential chromogenic medium that has been shown to be useful for identification of Candida albicans, Candida krusei, Candida tropicalis, and perhaps Candida glabrata. Colony morphology and color have been well defined when CHROMagar Candida has been used to isolate yeast directly from clinical specimens, including stool, urine, respiratory, vaginal, orop...
متن کاملIdentification 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...
متن کاملRapid identification of Candida species by confocal Raman microspectroscopy.
Candida species are important nosocomial pathogens associated with high mortality rates. Rapid detection and identification of Candida species can guide a clinician at an early stage to prescribe antifungal drugs or to adjust empirical therapy when resistant species are isolated. Confocal Raman microspectroscopy is highly suitable for the rapid identification of Candida species, since Raman spe...
متن کاملRapid identification of candida species by TaqMan PCR.
AIM To develop and evaluate a TaqMan(TM) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the rapid identification and speciation of candida species. METHODS Species specific primer and probe sets were designed for the identification of Candida albicans, C. parapsilosis, C. tropicalis, C. krusei, C. kefyr, and C. glabrata from clinical isolates in a 5' exonuclease (TaqMan(TM)) assay. The probes were label...
