| Therefore it is important that any Candida spp isolates associated with invasive infections and isolates from superficial sites in patients from high intensity settings and those transferred from an affected hospital (UK or abroad) should be analysed to species level. If Candida haemulonii, Candida famata, Candida sake or Saccharomyces cerevisiae are identified, further work should be undertaken to ensure that they are not C. auris. This would involve either molecular sequencing of the D1/D2 domain or MALDI-TOF Biotyper analysis with C. auris either already present or added to the database.<ref name=cdc2>Public Health England.https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/534174/Guidance_Candida__auris.pdf.

| According to published data, commercially available biochemical-based tests, including API AUX 20C and VITEK-2 YST, used in many front line diagnostic laboratories can misidentify C. auris as Candida haemulonii, Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Rhodotorula glutini.<ref name="cdc2" />

| Therefore, it is important that any Candida spp. isolates associated with invasive infections and isolates from superficial sites in patients from high intensity settings and those transferred from an affected hospital (UK or abroad) should be analysed to species level. As knowledge on the epidemiology and prevalence in the UK is as yet limited, PHE is currently not in a position to make specific recommendations with regards to screening policy. However, C. auris screening could be considered for patients at risk for Candida disease (ESCMID guidance developing group define such patients as “[…] mainly ICU patients, paediatric, HIV/AIDS and patients with malignancies including haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.”)<ref name="pmidRef: HPR 10(21)">{{cite journal| author=Schmoldt A, Benthe HF, Haberland G| title=Digitoxin metabolism by rat liver microsomes. | journal=Biochem Pharmacol | year= 1975 | volume= 24 | issue= 17 | pages= 1639-41 | pmid=Ref: HPR 10(21) | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=10 }} </ref>
