Candida Albicans (ATCC 10231) Tests

In humans, microbial cells, including bacteria and fungi, are vastly superior to host cells. Candida albicans is the most common fungal species in the human microbiota and is an ordinary yeast species. It causes painful, uncomfortable yeast infections. Candida albicans, a single-celled fungus, is a normal part of the microbes that live in the gastrointestinal tract. It lives in small quantities and in various warm and moist areas of the body, such as the mouth, rectum, and vagina. Their numbers are naturally kept in check by bacteria and other microorganisms that make up the body's microbiome. However, different factors can upset the microbial balance and cause the fungus to grow out of control and a yeast infection called candidiasis.

Developed by the ATCC (American Type Culture Collection) Standards Development Organization, the ATCC 10231 standard is for research use only. Not intended for any animal or human therapeutic or diagnostic use. This standard is designed to help users obtain live cultures for their work. However, the conditions or procedures given in this standard are not optimal. Researchers can initiate the growth of a culture in their own way. This strain is recommended by the ATCC for use in the tests described in ASTM E97991.

In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. Candida albicans (ATCC 10231) testing services are among the numerous tests performed in this context.
