Candida kefyr in Kuwait: Prevalence, antifungal drug susceptibility and genotypic heterogeneity

27 Oct 2020

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Candida kefyr causes invasive candidiasis in immunocompromised patients, particularly among those with oncohematological diseases. This study determined the prevalence of C. kefyr among yeast isolates collected during 2011-2018 in Kuwait. Antifungal susceptibility testing (AST) and genotypic heterogeneity among C. kefyr was also studied. METHODS: Clinical C. kefyr isolates recovered from bloodstream...
