Species distribution, azole resistance and related molecular mechanisms in invasive Candida parapsilosis complex isolates: Increase in fluconazole resistance in 21 years.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Candida parapsilosis complex consists of three species, the prevalence and geographical distribution of which might vary. Increasing rates of fluconazole resistance among C. parapsilosis complex were reported from various centres. OBJECTIVES: Aim of this study was to identify invasive C. parapsilosis complex strains up to species level, explore rates and molecular mechanisms of azole resistance and...
