Potency of gastrointestinal colonization and virulence of Candida auris in a murine endogenous candidiasis

Candida auris infections have recently emerged worldwide, and this species is highly capable of colonization and is associated with high levels of mortality. However, strain-dependent differences in colonization capabilities and virulence have not yet been reported. In the present study, we aimed to...
