ABSTRACT
Chromagar Candida is a new, modified, simple, rapid and cost effective method for the presumptive identification of Candida spp. after preliminary growth. 54 randomly selected clinical isolates of Candida were evaluated including, C.albicans (24), C.tropicalis (13), C.parapsilosis (6), C.krusei (5) & C.glabrata (4). The sensitivity and specificity appeared to be equal to that of conventional identification system except 4 C.glabrata strains which could only be identified by conventional method. Terbinafine, amphotericin B and nystatin were found to be highly sensitive drugs and clotrimazole and fluconazole showed the worst sensitivity results.
