Candida albicans remains the most frequent cause of fungal infections in an expanding
population of compromised patients and candidiasis is now the third most common infection …

Candida albicans is capable of forming biofilms on a variety of inert and biological surfaces.
Cells in biofilms display phenotypic properties that are radically different from their free …

Background Candida biofilms, which are often associated with device-related infections,
including catheter-related bloodstream infections, are resistant to commonly used antifungal …

Candida albicans is implicated in many biomaterial-related infections. Typically, these
infections are associated with biofilm formation. Cells in biofilms display phenotypic traits …

Candida grows on devices producing treatment resistant biofilms. A key tool for the study of
biofilms includes an accurate assessment of viable cell growth. This study systematically …

We have developed a high-density microarray platform consisting of nano-biofilms of
Candida albicans. A robotic microarrayer was used to print yeast cells of C. albicans …

The incidence of fungal infections has increased significantly over the past decades. Very
often these infections are associated with biofilm formation on implanted biomaterials and/or …

Candida albicans is a normal member of the human microbiota that asymptomatically
colonizes healthy individuals, however it is also an opportunistic pathogen that can cause …

Candida albicans biofilms have a significant medical impact due to their rapid growth on
implanted medical devices, their resistance to antifungal drugs, and their ability to seed …

Candida spp. infect medical devices, such as venous and urinary catheters, by adhering to
the surface and forming a community of drug-resistant cells surrounded by a matrix. The …
