| 520 | __ | |aVulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is an important public health problem affecting women of all age groups. C.albicans is the commonest pathogenic species among candida. However, the non albicans candida (NAC) is on the increase in the recent years. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of VVC and determine the antifungal susceptibility pattern of candida species in patients with clinical suspicion of vaginitis. A total of 260 women of age 15-65 years with clinical features suggestive of vaginitis were enrolled in the present study which included 100 diabetic and 160 non diabetic women. High vaginal swab samples were taken from them and processed for fungal culture. Candida isolates were identified using conventional methods and automated Vitek2 Compact (Biomerieux France). Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed for fluconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nystatin, amphotericin B and clotrimazole by disc diffusion method. Multi drug resistant Candida isolates were analysed for biofilm |
