Rapid, colorimetric identification of Candida albicans.

A total of 706 yeast isolates were evaluated in parallel by the Candida albicans Screen ( CAS; Carr-Scarborough Microbiologicals, Inc., Stone Mountain, Ga.) test and the germ tube (GT) test in comparison with the API 20C Yeast Identification System. The CAS and GT tests correctly identified 419 of the 422 isolates of C. albicans (99.3%). Two of the false-negative reactions occurring with the CAS were with GT-negative strains of C. albicans. There were two false-positive CAS reactions involving a single strain each of C. parapsilosis and C. tropicalis. Sensitivity and specificity for both tests exceeded 99%, with positive and negative predictive values of 99 and 98%, respectively.[1]
