Research Notes on Candidiasis
Candidiasis--also called moniliasis or a yeast infection-- is an infection caused by a fungal infection on the skin and/or mucous membranes. It can be caused by any of the Candida species, with Candida albicans being the most common. Candiasis of the mouth and throat is known as thrush.
Fast Facts:
- Candiasis can occur anywhere on the body.
- Candida yeasts are present in most people, but uncontrolled multiplication will result in candidiasis.
- A fungal infection that enters the bloodstream, is known as invasive candidiasis.
