Abstract: In order to determine the potential for cross-transmission of Candida spp. between health-care workers and patients, the survival of clinical isolates of five species of Candida on the palms of human volunteers was tested. One hundred microliters of a McFarland 1.0 density suspension (5 x 10(5) cfu) from an overnight ...

Abstract: In 31 patients (59.6%) Candida albicans was the only species isolated, 13 patients (25%) yielded C. albicans and other Candida species (including, C. glabrata, C. dubliniensis and C. tropicalisi). In eight patients (15%), only non-C. albicans Candida species were isolated. The results of this study demonstrate that alt ...

Abstract: It has been postulated that systemic cell-mediated immunity (CMI) is an important host defense mechanism against Candida infections of the vagina. However, in an estrogen-dependent murine model of experimental vaginal candidiasis, we recently showed that systemic Candida-specific Th1-type CMI induced by immunization w ...
