Quantitative relationships between Candida albicans in saliva and the clinical status of human subjects.

ABSTRACT

Patients with candidiasis had greater than 400 colony-forming units per ml of saliva, whereas carriers of Candida albicans had less than 400 colony-forming units per ml. Thus, quantitative cultures of saliva may aid in the diagnosis of oral candidiasis.
