The results were not in agreement with PCR-RFLP. Percentage of disagreement was 40.2, 50.0, 100.0 and 25.0 for Candida albicans, Candida krusei, Candida glabrata and Candida tropicalis respectively. PCR-RFLP demonstrated a very high discriminatory power in the identification of Candida species compared to agar.
