| Abstract: | Killer toxins were isolated from eight selected killer yeasts. Their activity on 100 Candida albicans isolates of human and animal origin was studied. A computer aided system for differentiating C. albicans strains was developed. By using this system, it was possible to differentiate 14 biotypes of C. albicans isolates based on their susceptibility to the killer toxins. |
