Abstract excerpt
In search of adhesion-variant strains of Candida albicans the adherence of a number of polyenes and/or azole-resistant strains of this yeast was studied (C. albicans 6406, 6406/8 and 799-XL, -XS, -YS, -R and YL). For comparison C. albicans KCCC 14172, known for its high adhesion and proteinase production, was also used. All isolates showed significantly lower adhesion (P < 0.001) compared with KCCC 14172.
