Candida tropicalis biofilm formation and expression levels of the CTRG ALS‐like genes in sessile cells
26 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Candida tropicalis is an emergent pathogen with a high rate of mortality associated with it; however, less is known about its pathogenic capacity. Biofilm formation (BF) has important clinical repercussions, and it begins with adherence to a substrate. The adherence capacity depends principally on the cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) and, at a later stage, on specific adherence due to adhesins. The ALS family in...
