title: [Growth rate of Candida albicans (Robin, 1853)and Candida stellatoidea (Martin et Jones, 1938) isolated from the human respiratory system].
abstract: The study comprises an analysis of the growth rate of C. albicans and C. stellatoidea strains isolated from the respiratory system and incubated on Nickerson's and Sabouraud's agar in the dark and by light. The property to form hyphae and pseudohyphae by both species was used to evaluate the growth rate. The increase in their growth allowed to isolate the stages characteristic for growth and development of most fungi. Disturbances appeared with the fungi exposed to light which is the factor definitely setting back the growth. Faster growth and development was observed with C. stellatoidea.
