Identification Of Candida Albicans Isolated from Human And Animals By Rapid Serological Methods

In the present work the incidence of Candida albicans in health and diseased human , animals as well as among chickens were done. For that purpuse, 120 samples were collected from different sources included oral thrush, vaginal candidiosis paronychia and As identified by colonial and microscopical morphology, 61 yeast isolates were detected from all the examined samples in a percentage of 50.8%.The percentage of yeast isolation from milk samples is alarming because out of 20 milk samples, yeast proved to present in 13(65%) samples. Microscopically on rice agar out of 13 yeast isolates recovered 4 isolates (30.7%) identified as C. albicans. In adYeasts were recovered from faecal samples of cattle in a percentage of ( 35 %). On the other hand 13 yeasts isolate (65%) were recovered from faecal samples of horses.Microscopic examination on rice agar proved that out of 7(35%) and 13(65%) yeast isolate
