| species distribution and antifungal susceptibility of candida bloodstream isolates in kuwait: a 10-year study. | bloodstream infections due to candida species are important complications in severely ill hospitalized patients. this study presents data on species distribution and antifungal susceptibility profiles of candida bloodstream isolates obtained from kuwait during a 10-year period. all the bloodstream isolates were identified to species level by the germ tube test and carbohydrate assimilation profile using the vitek 2 yeast identification system. using e-test strips for amphotericin b, fluconazole, ... | 2007 | 17244809 |
| species spectrum and antifungal susceptibility profile of vaginal isolates of candida in kuwait. | the study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of vulvovaginal candidiasis (vvc) among patients with vaginitis, frequency of different candida species, and their susceptibility profile. | 2015 | 25534676 |
| isolation of cholesterol-dependent, multidrug-resistant candida glabrata strains from blood cultures of a candidemia patient in kuwait. | candida glabrata has emerged as an important human pathogen associated with systemic and mucosal infections. here, we describe isolation of two cholesterol-dependent candida glabrata strains from a candidemia patient which failed to grow on the media devoid of a cholesterol source. | 2014 | 24712485 |
