Its ability to adhere to inert surfaces and to be transmitted from one patient to another via medical devices is of particular concern. Like other Candida spp., C. auris has the ability to transition from the yeast form to pseudohyphae and to build biofilms. Moreover, some isolates have a unique capacity to form aggregates....
