Speciation and Antifungal Susceptibility Pattern of Candida Isolated from Clinical Specimens
Candida species are the members of the normal flora of the skin, mucous membranes, and gastrointestinal tract. Candidiasis is a common fungal disease found in humans affecting, mucosa, skin, nails and internal organs of the body. Candida albicans is by far the most common species causing infections in humans. (Fridkin, 2006) However, non albicans Candida species are also being implicated in rec...
متن کاملMolecular 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 کاملIdentification 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...
متن کاملSusceptibility pattern of Candida albicans isolated from Iranian patients to antifungal agents
Background and Purpose: Candidiasis is a major fungal infection, and Candida albicans is the major cause of infections in humans. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) developed new breakpoints for antifungal agents against C. albicans. In this multi-center study, we aimed to determine the drug susceptibility profile of C. albicans, isolated from Iranian population according...
متن کاملidentification and antifungal susceptibility patterns of candida strains isolated from blood specimens in iran
conclusions the results of antifungal susceptibility tests demonstrated that voriconazole was the most active drug against candida isolates. candida albicans is the most common yeast isolated from human blood world-wide; the unexpectedly higher rate of c. parapsilosis isolated in this study necessitates more studies with larger sample sizes in iran. results candida parapsilosis (c. parapsilosis...
