Abstract

Sabouraud's dextrose (solid and liquid) medium has been used to examine the response of
Candida albicans to Cobalt , Nickel , Silver , Copper and Lead in three doses per each (10 , 25 and
50) mg/l in different exposure periods . In the solid medium the number of colonies was not
effected by all metals ions , except Ag ions'(25 and 50) mg/l which completely inhibited the
colonies numbers . In the liquid medium the effect of these metals on the growth was in the
following sequence Co , Ni . Ag , Cu and Pb respectively: '
Most elements studied: showed increase in- the ‘inhibition effect on the growth with A
increasing the ions concentration in the medium , whilethe inhibition effect decreased with the
increasing periods of exposure
