Adherence of Candida to mucosal epithelial cells
Acta Microbiol Pol.
1985.
Abstract
Adherence abilities of 45 Candida strains to human buccal and vaginal epithelial cells in vitro were tested in two media: 0.9% saline and phosphate buffer. Candida albicans cells adhered more strongly to epithelial cells than fungal cells of other Candida species. These findings were statistically significant according to Mann-Whitney's "U" test with buccal epothelial cells in both of the test media and with vaginal cells in saline only.
