Increasing prevalence, molecular characterization and antifungal drug susceptibility of serial Candida auris isolates in Kuwait

Candida auris is an emerging yeast pathogen of global significance. Its multidrug-resistant nature and inadequacies of conventional identification systems pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This study investigated occurrence of C. auris in clinical specimens in Kuwait and its susceptibility...
