What is the role of toxicity testing in understanding Candida infections?
Toxicity testing plays a crucial role in understanding the dynamics of Candida infections. By evaluating the toxic effects of antifungal agents and other chemicals on Candida, researchers can develop strategies to mitigate the risks associated with these infections. Toxicity testing also helps in assessing the safety and efficacy of new antifungal drugs and in understanding the mechanisms of drug resistance.
