Description
Light micrograph (LM) showing the fungus Candida albicans in a case of pulmonary candidiasis. C. albicans lives in or on numerous parts of the body as normal flora. However, when an imbalance occurs, such as when hormonal balances change, or in patients with weakened immune systems, C. albicans can multiply, resulting in a mucosal or skin infection called Candidiasis. Gram stained, magnification unknown.
