Abstract
A medium consisting of an aqueous extract of zein, lactose, and Tween 80 is used together with an overlay of 1 % Tween 80 and coverslipping to provide a combined rapid (germ tube) and standard (chlamydospore) method for diagnosis ofCandida albicans. The method is exquisitely sensitive for diagnosis ofC. albicans but lumps chlamydospore-producing strains ofC. tropicalis withC. albicans.
