Candida albicans is a ubiquitous yeast that belongs to the family of yeastlike fungi. Candida ssp. exclusively colonize the human host, they do not exist anywhere else in nature. Apart from the yeast form, which primarily causes superficial infections, so-called pseudomycelia are a further morphologic manifestation of yeastlike fungi. Germ tubes and the development of pseudo mycelia mainly occur in cases of invasive mycosis. Candida yeastlike fungi produce and excrete multiple enzymes that enable the facultative pathogen microorganism to penetrate blood vessels and mucosa barriers.
SERION ELISA classic Candida albicans IgG/IgM/IgA are qualitative and quantitative tests for detection of human antibodies in serum or plasma directed against Candida albicans. The complex antigen that consists of cytoplasmic antigen structures (e.g. 46 kDa-Enolase) and a certain amount of cell-wall components allows the detection of invasive, systemic mycoses and of diagnostics during the phase of colonization in case of early Candida infections.
