	Candida dubliniensis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Candida dubliniensis is an organism associated with AIDS patients.
		Candida dubliniensis is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause both superficial and invasive infections, (mostly in the immunocompromised).
		In a test on C. dubliniensis in HIV+ patients in Maryland, most isolates were highly susceptible to fluconazole, though one was dose-dependent susceptible, (16 µg/mL), meaning a high dose of fluconazole given to the patient would halt the yeast.

	Candida dubliniensis Fungemia: the First Four Cases in North America
		The incidence of candidemia due to C. dubliniensis is not known, largely because of the difficulty in readily distinguishing this species from the morphologically similar C.
		Two of the four patients had end-stage liver disease, which is a known risk factor for bloodstream infections with organisms that are part of the normal gastrointestinal flora because of breakdown of the normal mucosal barrier (14).

		Candida dubliniensis is an emerging pathogen capable of causing oropharyngeal, vaginal and bloodstream infections.
		dubliniensis is similar to Candida albicans in several phenotypic characteristics, it differs from it with respect to epidemiology, certain virulence factors and the ability to develop resistance to fluconazole rapidly.
		Candida is the fourth most common organism responsible for bloodstream infections in many intensive care units, with Candida albicans being the most predominant species isolated in such cases.

	Candida dubliniensis: an emerging opportunistic pathogen.
		Candida albicans remains the most important fungal pathogen and is frequently associated with oral candidiasis in HIV-infected individuals.
		However, they have unusual carbohydrate assimilation patterns and grow poorly or not at all at 42 degrees C. Using a variety of DNA fingerprinting techniques and karyotype analysis, the genomic organization of C. dubliniensis was shown to be distinctly different from that of C. albicans.
		Classification of C. dubliniensis as a separate species was confirmed by phylogenetic analysis, whereby the comparison of ribosomal RNA sequences demonstrated that C. dubliniensis isolates formed a cluster clearly distinct from other Candida species, including C. albicans, to which it is most closely related.

	Candida (genus) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Candida grows in the medical laboratory as large, round, white or cream (albicans is Latin meaning 'whitish') colonies on agar plates.
		Candida infection may be a problem in HIV positive patients receiving antifungal drugs.
		One of the most common Candida infections is oral candidiasis caused by acrylic dentures, especially in elderly denture wearers (Samaranayake and MacFarlane, 1990 (Oral Candidosis).

	Candida Species
		Candida is a member of normal flora of skin, mouth, vagina, and stool.
		Although they are the members of the same genus, the various species do have some degree of unique behavior with respect to their colony texture, microscopic morphology on cornmeal tween 80 agar at 25°C (Dalmau method) and fermentation or assimilation profiles in biochemical tests [1303].

	Coaggregation of Candida dubliniensis with Fusobacterium nucleatum.
		Candida dubliniensis, a newly characterized species, has been identified in human immunodeficiency virus-seropositive patients and other immunocompromised individuals.
		Fifteen isolates of C. dubliniensis and 40 isolates of C. albicans were tested for their ability to coaggregate with strains of Fusobacterium nucleatum, Peptostreptococcus micros, Peptostreptococcus magnus, Peptostreptococcus anaerobius, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Prevotella intermedia.
		When C. dubliniensis and C. albicans strains were grown at 37 degrees C on Sabouraud dextrose agar, only C. dubliniensis strains coaggregated with F. nucleatum ATCC 49256 and no C. albicans strains showed CoAg.

		Candida splenic abscess and hypersplenism: Both are manifestations of disseminated candidiasis and are usually simultaneously associated with liver involvement.
		Medical Care: Treatment of Candida infections varies substantially and is based on the anatomic location of the infection, the patients' underlying disease and immune status, the patients' risk factors for infection, the specific species of Candida responsible for infection, and, in some cases, the susceptibility of the strain to antifungal drugs.

	Candida By Morganics
		In a healthy person, Candida numbering in the millions, is a yeast that normally exists within the mouth, throat, intestines, and genital/urinary tract.
		Candida is considered to be a normal part of the organisms that co-exist in our lower digestive tract.
		For example, Candida has the ability to resist antibiotics, cortisone, steroids, etc. while the other organisms are destroyed leaving all to be taken over by the remaining Candida.
