Abstract

Quantitative data of major cellular carbohydrates distinguished Candida albicans or Torulopsis glabrata from Saccharomyces cerevisiae but not C. albicans from T. glabrata. Multivariate analyses of both carbohydrate and fatty acid variables (I. Brondz, I. Olsen, and M. Sjöström, J. Clin. Microbiol. 27:2815-2819, 1989), however, differentiated all three species.
