krusei is among unique species with natural resistance towards fluconazole, a commonly used antifungal for Candida infections Abstract Revealing the phylogenetic relationships of Candida krusei strains (sexual form Pichia kudri-avzevii) is a prerequisite for understanding the evolu-tion of its virulence Candida krusei belongs to the group of candidiasis etiological agents, and although it is not isolated as frequently as other Candida species, the infections caused by this organism GUIDELINES FOR TREATMENT OF CANDIDEMIA IN ADULTS. General Statements: Yeast in a blood culture should NOT be considered a contaminant. ember Journal of Medical Microbiology(5) DOI Candida krusei: biology, epidemiology, pathogenicity and clinical manifestations of an emerging pathogen J. Med. Microbiol, () ; Candida krusei (teleomorph Pichia kudriavzevii) is an opportunistic fungal pathogenIt is the fourth most common non-albicans Candida species (NAC) causing high prevalence and invasive candidiasis and candidemia,C. If there is a high , · There are at leastdistinct Candida species that cause human disease, but >90% of invasive disease is caused by themost common pathogens, C. albicans, 1 day ago · kudriavzevii (Candida krusei), has been observed recently. Depending on the age group and geographical location of the patient, the NAC species can exceed CCandida krusei belongs to the group of candidiasis etiological agents, and although it is not isolated as frequently as other Candida species, the infections caused by this organism are of special relevance in the clinical setting because of its intrinsic resistance to fluconazole Here we briefly review our current knowledge of the biology, pathophysiology and epidemiology of a potential multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen, C. krusei, while also discussing the mechanisms of drug resistance of Candida species and alternative therapeutic approaches Candida krusei: Biology, epidemiology, pathogenicity and clinical manifestations of an emerging pathogen.
