Growth of Candida species in liquid culture medium for Trichomonas vaginalis
Abstract
The growth of Candida spp from vaginal specimens in Bushby's liquid medium for T vaginalis was compared with that on Sabouraud's agar medium, and isolation was significantly greater in Bushby's medium (p less than 0.001). Isolations missed (4.43%) in Bushby's medium probably represented vaginal carriage of small numbers of Candida spp.
