Isolation and Species Identification of Candida Isolated from Patients of Vulvovaginal Candidiasis in a Tertiary Care Hospital
نویسندگان
چکیده
An increase in the predisposing conditions in recent years has resulted in an increasing incidence of Candida infections.The accurate species identification of Candida is important for the treatment, as not all species respond to the same treatment and also because of the problem of anti-fungal resistance in certain species.Therefore, the species level identification of the Candida isolates, along with their anti-fungal susceptibility patterns can greatly influence the treatment options for the clinician.
