Oral candidiasis is the most common opportunistic infection in individuals infected with the human immunodeficiency virus. Though Candida albicans is the major aetiological agent, non-albicans species such Candida tropicalis are now emerging as important agents of such infection. The Candida cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) is considered a critical factor contributing to its colonization potential and virulence. It is also known that brief exposure to sub-cidal concentrations of antifungal agents is a likely scenario in the oral environment where the administered drugs are diluted continuously due to the flushing action of saliva. Hence the objective of the present study was to compare the CSH of 10 isolates each of C. albicans and C. trop...
