Candida albicans

Candida albicans is a fungal pathogen commonly found in the human microbiota but capable of causing opportunistic infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. It is a leading cause of mucosal, cutaneous, and invasive candidiasis, including vaginal yeast infections and systemic bloodstream infections. Rapid and reliable detection is essential for effective monitoring.
Candida albicans PCR kits based on real-time PCR technology provide a sensitive and specific method for detecting C. albicans DNA in human samples. These molecular diagnostics tools offer accurate and reproducible results in routine and specialized laboratory workflows. Available in CE IVD-marked format for diagnostic use and as research use only (RUO) versions, these PCR assays support laboratory clinical workflows, C. albicans identification and diagnostics, applications such as sexually transmitted infections (STI) research, applications such as fungal epidemiology, microbiome studies, and medical mycology research.
