Abstract:
In recent years , fungal biofilms related infection have become an increasingly important clinical problem .Many clinically important fungi can form biofilms , including:Candida albicans , Cryptococcus neoformans , Rhodotorula species , Aspergillus fumigatus, Malassezia pachydermatis, Histoplasma capsulatum.Many chronic persistent infections are associated with the fungal bio-film formation.The developmental phases of fungal biofilms are complicated , including adhesion, colonisation, maturation and dispers-al, which are governed by many genes .This review discusses clinical impact of biofilm formation of the common human pathogenic fun -gi, biofilm structure and the molecular mechanisms during the biofilm formation process .
