Candida species appear as a nosocomial fungal pathogen that causes infection predominantly in the individual having impaired immune system. It is the cause of invasive candidiasis with numerous cases reported among leukemia patients, after bone marrow transplantation. It naturally shows resistance from fluconazole, an antifungal agent which is prescribed frequently. The mortality rate caused by C. krusei is greater than the C. albican which is more common. Other Candida species that are similar to the profile of C. krusei are C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis, C. guillermondii, C. rugosa, and C. tropicalis. The collection of the samples (n=50) was made by using Hi Chrome Candida differential agar medium. The presence of biofilm formation was identified by 96-well microplates by using Congo r... view moreĀ»
