Abstract

The study was an attempt to correlate phenotypic pathogenetic determinants of clinical Candida albicans strains with their genotype as determined by PCR fingerprinting. A total of 25 C. albicans strains was tested. Adherence capacity, hydrophobicity and proteinase production were compared with the genotypes of the particular Candida strains. The fungal strains represented eleven genotypes. No correspondence relationship was found between genotype and the markers of pathogenicity.
