Key clinical point: Candida albicans showed the strongest exoenzyme activity compared to non-albicans isolates in oral cavity samples from adults with diabetes.
Major finding: Candida albicans isolates showed 97.3%, 100%, and 77.3% exoenzyme activity for phospholipase, hemolysin, and esterase, respectively. Differences in activity between albicans and non-albicans isolates were significant for phospholipase and hemolysin, but did not reach significance for esterase.
Study details: The data come from 108 Candida species including 75 Candida albicans and 33 non-albicans taken from diabetes patients’ oral cavity samples.
Disclosures: The study was supported by the Deputy of Research and Technology of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. The study was part of the MD thesis of coauthor Mehdi Ghaderian Jahromi. The researchers had no financial conflicts to disclose.
