A number of tests which detect Candida antigen in body fluids have been described for the diagnosis of systemic candidosis. Many of these tests have poor sensitivity or involve complex methodology and none is routinely established. In this study we compare the diagnostic potential of a new slide latex agglutination (SLA) test, which detects Candida cell wall antigens with a commercial SLA antigen test (Cand-Tec, Ramco Laboratories, Houston).
