Candida kefyr in Kuwait: Prevalence, antifungal drug susceptibility and genotypic heterogeneity

OBJECTIVE: Candida kefyr causes invasive candidiasis in immunocompromised patients, particularly among those with oncohematological diseases. This study determined the prevalence of C. kefyr among yeast isolates collected during 2011–2018 in Kuwait. Antifungal susceptibility testing (AST) and genoty...
