[Correlation between resistance testing and typing of Candida albicans--isolates from AIDS patients and chronic recurrent oral candidiasis]. / Korrelation zwischen Resistenztestung und Typisierung von Candida albicans--Isolaten bei AIDS-Patienten und chronisch rezidivierender oraler Candidose.

In patients with AIDS and recurrent oropharyngeal candidosis results of biotyping and serotyping were compared with antifungal susceptibility testing. Biotype B1 was found predominantly with 44.3% from 169 C. albicans isolates. Serotype A was seen in 150/169 C. albicans isolates. No close correlation between high MIC values (> or = 25 micrograms/ml) for C. albicans isolates against fluconazole nor a change to a particular biotype or serotype has been observed in recurrences of oral candidosis.
