| Popis: | Candida auris provides a substantial global nosocomial threat clinically. With the recent emergence that the organism can readily colonize skin niches, it will likely continue to pose a risk in health care units, particularly to patients undergoing surgery. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of antifungal-loaded calcium sulfate (CS) beads in combatting C. auris infection. |
