Rapid identification of Candida albicans by using Albicans ID and fluoroplate agar plates.

P Rousselle1, A M Freydiere, P J Couillerot, H de Montclos, Y Gille.   

Abstract

Two commercially available agar media, Albicans ID and Fluoroplate, that use a chromogenic or a fluorogenic substrate for the detection and identification of Candida albicans were evaluated. From 1,006 clinical samples containing 723 yeast strains, 352 C. albicans strains were detected with either of the two media. The sensitivity of each of the two media was 93.8% and the specificity was 98.6%, with five false-positive reactions for Candida tropicalis and no false-negative reactions.
