From: Isolates from hospital environments are the most virulent of the Candida parapsilosiscomplex
Distribution of C. parapsilosis environmental and blood isolates, according to the defined classes of cytotoxicity. The majority of environmental isolates are included in the group causing between 30 and 60% cytotoxicity. Cellular damage induced by the yeast was quantified as the amount of LDH release by macrophages after 12 hours of infection.
