Characterization of atypical Candida tropicalis and other uncommon clinical yeast isolates

R L Schlitzer et al. J Clin Microbiol. 1982 Mar.

Abstract

Clinical yeast isolates representing alpha-glucoside-deficient variants of Candida tropicalis, C. lusitaniae, atypical C. albicans, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were characterized. Additional physiological tests, including cellobiose fermentation, rhamnose assimilation, and triphenyl tetrazolium chloride reduction, are recommended for the detection and presumptive identification of uncommon Candida spp. in the clinical laboratory.
