Simple, reliable, and cost-effective yeast identification scheme for the clinical laboratory.

Abstract

The appearance of colonies on the chromogenic medium CHROMagar Candida combined with observation of morphology on corn meal-Tween 80 agar was used for the identification of 353 clinical yeast isolates. The results were compared with those obtained with API yeast identification kits. The accuracy of identification and the turnaround time were equivalent for each method, and our cultural method was less expensive.
