[Proteolytic activity of Candida strains--parameter of their identity or similarity].
Proteolytic activity of 238 strains of Candida was investigated by the Staib method in Rózga modification, permitting for quantitative evaluation of the result (agar medium with albumin). Analyzing size of proteolysis zones--obtained for strains isolated from selected ontocenoses of the same women--a linear correlation coefficient was used; for confirmation of identity of tested strains a conformity coefficient was used. Isolated strains were identified as C. albicans, C. guilliermondii, C. krusei, C. pseudotropicalis, C. tropicalis and other species (singular). It was found that the curve of distribution of proteolysis zone sizes of all strains is normal and that statistically significant correlation between size of proteolysis zone of strains isolated from vagina and oral cavity of the same women does exist.
