Candida albicans testing
Candida albicans is a yeast commonly
associated with opportunistic infections and contamination in pharmaceutical
products. Its detection is critical in maintaining microbial quality standards.
Tests We Offer
Candida albicans — Specified Microorganism (USP <62>)
Candida albicans is a yeast used as
an indicator of fungal contamination and must be absent in specified
non-sterile products.
Test Methodology (USP <62>)
- Enrichment in fungal-supportive media
- Selective incubation to inhibit bacterial flora
- Isolation on selective fungal agar (e.g.,
Sabouraud-type media)
- Microscopic and biochemical confirmation of yeast
morphology
This ensures accurate detection of
fungal contamination in pharmaceutical products.
Benefits
- Ensures fungal contamination control
- Supports product safety compliance
- Validates raw material quality
- Meets pharmacopeial requirements
