It has emerged worldwide in different countries and reports of drug resistances have come from 32 countries ( 2 – 4 ). First, it emerged parallelly across 3 continents and soon after in North America, probably during travel ( 5 ).…”
Heterogeneity is seen when multidrug-resistant
C. auris
biofilm is cultured using different reported methods. Biofilm formed on the gelatin surface mimics the condition of a host environment that has multilayers and EPS.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
