Comparison of Biofilm quantification in strains of Candida auris and Candida albicans evaluated by means of Crystal violet, MTT, ATP and NBTZ/BCIP Assays
Abstract
Abstract The study presented here shows Biofilm quantification in microtiter plates in strains of Candida auris and Candida albicans evaluated by means of Crystal violet, MTT, ATP-Luminescence and NBTZ/BCIP assays. The results showed significant differences in biofilm formation between Candida auris and Candida albicans but also within Candida auris outbreak strains in contrast to Candida auris DSM 21092 reference strain.
