frank resistance? really?
Two Points[edit]
No - not really. C. glabrata is typically resistant in a clinical setting, though in culture non-physiological concentrations of keto. or fluc. can kill them. Frank resistance implies that there is no effect on growth at any concentration. Also, I removed a line that read, "[h]owever, the formation of biofilms is very weak as compared to Candida albicans." This statement is very vague. There are more incidents of C. albicans biofilms clinically, but C. glabrata is quite capable of forming a biofilm under the right circumstances. I agree with this point in theory, but it needs to be restated in a less ambiguous way. If either of these statements are going to be reintegrated into the article, they're going to need primary literature citations, IMO. BillyBoy 07:24, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Tortulosis??[edit]
I cannot find anything under Tortulosis. I would appreciate if the author(s) clarify that entity/microorganism or correct(s) the several entires if typo's. There is unrelated to C. glabrata Torulosis (Cryptococcus neoformans infection), however, it should not be in this section/article. Aceofhearts1968 (talk) 09:25, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

New name[edit]
There was a naming alteration at a conference and it was agreed that Candida glabrata should change its name to Nakaseomyces glabrata, since Candida is not a monophyletic taxon. The article may keep its name but this should be reported. Source: https://journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1128/JCM.01811-20 Hrodrik (talk) 01:48, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
