Rapid Differentiation of Candida albicans from Non-albicans Species by Germ Tube Test Directly From Blood Culture Bottles

Rapid Differentiation of Candida albicans from Non-albicans Species by Germ Tube Test Directly From Blood Culture Bottles

Introduction: It is important to identify infection-causing yeasts rapidly and perform antifungal susceptibility tests in order to determine the treatment to be applied. The aim of this study was to use direct germ tube test (GTT) from blood culture bottle for rapid differentiation of albicans/non-a...
