Abstract

Saliva can inhibit the adhesion of Candida albicans to plastic when the fungus is in the germinating stage. The inhibition is mediated by saliva secretory IgA, which blocks adhesins on the cell wall surface of germ tubes. Adhesion of Candida to plastic dentures can cause denture stomatitis.

Abstract

A study conducted on the expression of the antigens, serotype A and B, of Candida albicans shows that the serotype A is more reactive in acidic medium while serotype B is more reactive in alkaline medium. Indirect immunofluorescence shows that the monoclonal antibody B9E and the polyclonal monospecific antiserum against the antibody 6 in vitro react with the cell walls of the serotype A yeast cells but not with serotype B. However spectrofluorometry shows similar reactivity of both the serotypes.
