Summary:
Candida albicans is an indicator of the official evaluation of the effectiveness of cosmetics maintenance.
In the paper C. albicans general characteristics, morphology and culture, diagnosis of infections caused
by the yeast, the role in the environment, pathogenicity, sensitivity and resistance to antifungal medica-
ments and the current interest in the microorganism in microbiology cosmetics were discussed.
The paper is to strengthen the belief of producers and users of cosmetics to the validity of the selection
of C. albicans as an indicator organism to assess the effectiveness of added preservatives.
