Abstract
There are serological cross reactions among many species of the genera Candida and Torulopsis. The authentic strains of the geuns Torulopsis such as T. glabrata, T. holmii, T. stellata var. cambresieri and T. colliculosa, were used for antigen analyses by means of slide agglutination method using monospecific and absorbed antisera. Atigenic structures of the species were confirmed by the reciprocal absorption method. T. glabrata has the thermostable antigens 1, 3, 6, 10, 34 and thermolabile antigen k. Antigens 34 and k are the new and specific antigens of the species. T. holmii has the thermostable antigens 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 26 and T. stellata var. cambresieri and T. colliculosa have the thermostaqle antigens 1, 3, 4, 24. The last three species do not have any thermolabile antigen. Therefore, it can be concluded that the antigenic structure of T. holmii is the same to that of Saccharomyces exiguus, ann the antigenic structures of the last two species are identical to those of. S.rosei and S. fermentati.
