Resumo

Production of E,E-farnesol (FOH) and biofilm formation were studied under various conditions in 56 strains of eight Candida spp. FOH production differed significantly not only between Candida spp. but within Candida albicans strains as well. FOH concentrations and biofilm formation were the highest for C. albicans.
