 AB    In patients with AIDS and recurrent oropharyngeal candidosis results of
       biotyping and serotyping were compared with antifungal susceptibility
       testing. Biotype B1 was found predominantly with 44.3% from 169 C.
       albicans isolates. Serotype A was seen in 150/169 C. albicans isolates.
       No close correlation between high MIC values (> or = 25 micrograms/ml)
       for C. albicans isolates against fluconazole nor a change to a
       particular biotype or serotype has been observed in recurrences of oral
       candidosis.
