Candida albicans

Candida Albicans commonly known as a yeast infection has affected many people in our community and throughout this paper I will be discussing the affects it has on our community. There are different ways Candida Albicans can be transmitted, but at the same time there are also many ways it can be treated. There are signs and symptoms that may vary depending on which area of the body is affected. It is important that we treat this infection to avoid further complications such as recurring infection, which may be a sign of something more serious or damage to the organs. The species Candida or C. Albicans is the species belonging to the Genus Candida can have an effect on the immunocompromised population, such as HIV and AIDS patients. Cancer…

or inflammation of the vagina, and infections occur when there are too many of the bacteria and yeast that normally live in the vagina. If you have recurrent yeast infections, four or more within a year, you might need a maintenance plan and a longer treatment course. Why Do You Have Recurring Yeast Infections $ The Genetic Link Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen, and it’s the fungus most responsible for vaginal yeast infections. The immune response in healthy individuals will…

responsibility of mentoring a high school student in the U of A WISEST program. Also, I attended: conferences, seminars, public talks, etc. which influenced me to pursue more research I was 1/5 chosen from applicants all over Canada. I applied to this program because I felt like I needed to mature and living independently in Toronto for 3 months did just that. I was able to experience not only great research, but a diverse environment. Research-wise, I worked on C. albicans, a microbe that…

Vaginitis:Vaginal candidias Vaginal candidiasis is a type of vaginitis that is caused by the Candida species. It is not considered to be a sexually transmitted infection (Sobel, 2014). It is a systemic fungal infection caused by a result of decreased polymorphonuclear host defenses system (Sobel, 2014). When the vaginal environment is disturbed, normal flora in the vagina and skin resulting in fungal overgrowth (Sobel, 2014). Vaginal candidiasis is most common in females who are menstruating…

as gold standard on 3 types of oral cariogenic microorganisms (Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacilli and Candida albicans) 1- Streptococcus mutans: The results of this study showed that coconut oil had a statistically significant higher inhibitory effect on SM with decrease in number of CFU from 500 to 40 and 53.7 and percentage of reduction 92% and 89.3% at 2 and 24 hours contact period consecutively as shown in (tables (1 & 2) & fig. (1)) and (fig 2 A & B). Also, Nigella sativa oil…

only in their action and activity but also in their distribution and metabolization and excretion by the body. Antimicrobial medicines are normally grouped according to the microorganisims they act primarily against. Identification of the disease causing agent is essential for anti-microbial therapy . (Dasari Srilakshmi et al ; 2016 ) Tal sindoor has a broad spectrum anti–microbial activity against Gram positive, Gram negative bacteria and as well against fungi. Antimicrobial activity of the…

Here are some differential diagnoses for perineal itching and ways to determining the diagnosis. For example, Litmus testing for pH, wet mount from a pap smear, K hydroxide (KOH) preparation and whiff test, cultures for fungi and trichomonads can be used to determine if the diagnosis is Vaginitis, candida albicans (monilia); Vaginitis, Gardnerella/bacterial (mix); Vulvovaginitis, Fungal (Diagnosis of, n.d.). According to Neistein (2008), laboratory tests, clinical findings, signs, and symptoms…

Abstract 6- bromo-2-(4-chlorophenyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives 2-7 were synthesized.. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their anti-microbial activity using the agar diffusion technique . The tested compounds were evaluated against, Gram +ve bacteria , Gram -ve bacteria, Yeast and Filamentous Fungus. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was made in vitro for compounds which showed antimicrobial activity. Compound 3b has broad spectrum activity against Gram +ve bacteria, Gram…

has been using the Moringa as an herbal medicine to treat tinea and athlete’s foot. All over the history, plants are being studied because of having the ability to use in medical purposes. Nowadays, as disease-causing microorganisms become stronger and not affected on antibiotics and traditional antifungal drugs, there is a growing interest in researching their pharmaceutical properties. Ginger root is an example of a plant that has many possible uses in dealing with Candida and many other…

Raquel Rufina et al (2012) have reported the Antimicrobial and Anti-Adhesive Potential of a Biosurfactants Produced by Candida Species. The antimicrobial activity of the biosurfactant isolated from Candida sphaerica was determined by measuring the growth inhibition percentages obtained for several Microorganisms. The tested biosurfactant presented antimicrobial activity against all microorganisms used, although, depending on the microorganism, the biosurfactant presents different effective…
