Serological differentiation of experimentally induced Candida dubliniensis and Candida albicans infections.
Using a rabbit model of systemic infection, we show that it is possible to differentiate infections caused by Candida dubliniensis and other Candida species by detecting the antibody response mounted by the infected animals. These results confirm our previous observation in a patient with C. dubliniensis candidemia and suggest that detection of C. dubliniensis-specific antibodies is useful in t...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis using a single-enzyme PCR-RFLP method.
Candida dubliniensis is a novel Candida spp. that is similar to Candida albicans with respect to several phenotypic characteristics. However, they differ from each other with respect to epidemiology, pathogenesis, and the rapid development of resistance to fluconazole. In the present study, we used a single-enzyme PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) technique to differentiate C....
متن کاملDifferentiation of Candida dubliniensis from Candida albicans on rosemary extract agar and oregano extract agar.
Candida dubliniensis is a recently described pathogenic species which shares many phenotypic features with Candida albicans and therefore, may be misidentified in microbiological laboratories. Because molecular methods can be onerous and unfeasible in routine mycological laboratories with restricted budgets such as those in developing countries, phenotypic techniques have been encouraged in the...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Candida dubliniensis from Candida albicans on staib agar and caffeic acid-ferric citrate agar.
The methods currently available for the identification of the pathogenic yeast Candida dubliniensis all have disadvantages in that they are time-consuming, expensive, and/or, in some cases, unreliable. In a recent study (P. Staib and J. Morschhäuser, Mycoses 42:521-524; 1999) of 14 C. dubliniensis and 11 C. albicans isolates, it was suggested that the ability of C. dubliniensis to produce rough...
متن کاملCandida dubliniensis infections in a pediatric population: retrospective identification from clinical laboratory isolates of Candida albicans.
Candida dubliniensis is a recently described species that shares many phenotypic and morphological features with Candida albicans. The clinical significance of isolating C. dubliniensis from the pediatric population is not clear, as most clinical isolates have been recovered from the oral cavities or bloodstreams of adults infected with human immunodeficiency virus. In order to understand furth...
