In vitro differential activity of phospholipases and acid proteinases of clinical isolates of Candida Atividade diferencial in vitro de fosfolipases e proteinases ácidas de isolados clínicos de Candida

INTRODUCTION: Candida yeasts are commensals; however, if the balance of normal flora is disrupted or the immune defenses are compromised, Candida species can cause disease manifestations. Several attributes contribute to the virulence and pathogenicity of Candida, including the production of extrace...
