Workflow of surveillance sample testing using CHROMagar™ Candida Plus medium. A 50 µl of surveillance sample was inoculated on a CHROMagar™ Candida Plus plate and spread evenly using a disposable spreader. B 10 µl of surveillance sample was also inoculated on another CHROMagar™ Candida Plus plate and streaked with a 10 µl yellow plastic loop to obtain single colonies. Plates were incubated at 37 ˚C for 72 h and then imaged using a Canon EOS 80D Camera through Ortery Photosimile software and processed using Photoshop 22.4.2. Workflow template was created with BioRender.com
