Abstract:
Candida albicansis an opportunistic pathogen that is commonly found as a member of the human microflora.The ability ofC. albicansto alter its cellularmorphology has been associated with its virulence;yeast cells are more prevalent in commensa

Materials & Methods:
Candida albicans was grown in 5 ml of YNBNP medium incubated in a rollerdrum overnight at 378C. The morphological state of C. albicans was determined microscopically using a 100¥ objective lens on a Nikon Eclipse TE300 inverted microscope equipped wit
