Supplementation of CHROMagar Candida medium with Pal's medium for rapid identification of Candida dubliniensis.
CHROMagar Candida medium is used for the isolation and identification of Candida species, but it does not differentiate Candida albicans from Candida dubliniensis. This differentiation can be achieved by using Pal's agar, which cannot be used in primary isolation. We have combined both media to obtain a new medium that can be used for the isolation and identification of C. dubliniensis in prima...
متن کاملCHROMagar Candida, a new differential isolation medium for presumptive identification of clinically important Candida species.
CHROMagar Candida is a novel, differential culture medium that is claimed to facilitate the isolation and presumptive identification of some clinically important yeast species. We evaluated the use of this medium with 726 yeast isolates, including 82 isolated directly on the medium from clinical material. After 2 days of incubation at 37 degrees C, 285 C. albicans isolates gave distinctive gree...
متن کاملPerformance of candida ID, a new chromogenic medium for presumptive identification of Candida species, in comparison to CHROMagar Candida.
Candida ID agar allows identification of Candida albicans and differentiation of other Candida species. In comparison with CHROMagar Candida, we evaluated the performance of this medium directly from 596 clinical specimens. In particular, detection of C. albicans after 24 h of incubation was easier on Candida ID (sensitivity, 96.8%) than on CHROMagar (sensitivity, 49.6%).
متن کاملSunflower seed husk agar: a new medium for the differentiation of Candida dubliniensis from Candida albicans.
A sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seed husk agar medium has been developed and evaluated for differentiation of Candida dubliniensis from Candida albicans on the basis of colony morphology and chlamydospore production. All C. dubliniensis isolates (n=40) produced rough colonies with hyphal fringes and abundant chlamydospores whereas 101 of 105 (96.2%) C. albicans isolates produced smooth colonies...
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...
