“…The conclusion of the authors of this latter study was that although this biotyping method was effective for research applications, it probably would not prove effective for clinical use. In addition to serotyping and the Odds and Abbott biotyping method, a number of other biotyping methods have been used to discriminate C. albicans strains, including morphotyping (145,270,293), resistotyping (144,215), killer yeast typing (278,279), enzyme typing (66,424,425), sugar assimilation typing (50,105,113,120) and drug susceptibility typing (294). Isoenzyme biotyping has also been successfully applied to Candida species (52,180,288).…”
