摘要：
Candida dubliniensis, yeast closely related to Candida albicans, is a new pathogen associated mainly with infections of immunocompromised hosts. In this study, we report the first isolation of three isolates of C. dubliniensis in Slovakia. The first selection of both C. albicans and C. dubliniensis from the other Candida species was done on the basis of specific green color of primoculture grown on CHROMagar Candida. The presumptive identification was completed by supplemental tests: germ-tube formation, production of chlamydospores, ability or inability to grow at 42 and 45 degrees C and by commercial set API 20C AUX. Parallely, the discrimination between both species was performed by PCR assay using primers specific for Candida dubliniensis.
