Virulence factors, biofilm, enzymes, Candida species

Clinical infections due to Candida species is increasing day by day. Virulence factors attributed are production of biofilm, enzymes etc. Biofilm formation help Candida species overcome host defence mechanisms and also antifungal treatment. Detection of biofilm production was done by 3 methods – micro titre plate method, tube method and congo red agar method. Enzyme production also plays a vital role in pathogenesis of Candida infections. Enzyme demonstrated in this study are phospholipase, esterase, hemolysins. Early detection of these can direct prompt and correct clinical management.
