Use of CHROMagar Candida for the presumptive identification of Candida species directly from clinical specimens in resource-limited settings
Introduction: Identification of yeast isolated from clinical specimens to the species level has become increasingly important. Ever-increasing numbers of immuno-suppressed patients, a widening range of recognized pathogens, and the discovery of resistance to antifungal drugs are contributing factors...
