Abstract:

One hundred clinical isolates of Candida were studied during a period of one year. Most common clinical sample was urine (38%) followed by sputum (17%) and blood (10%). Most common species isolated was Candida albicans (42%) followed by Candida tropicalis (34%), C. parapsilosis (11%), C. glabrata (6%), C. krusei (5%) and C. dubliniensis (2%). Non albicans candida were isolated at a higher rate (58%) than Candida albicans. To conclude the study it showed that prevalence of non albicans candida was higher than C. albicans from various clinical specimens.
