ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We tested the effectiveness of 23 disinfectants used in healthcare facilities against isolates from the 4 major clades of Candida auris. Sporicidal disinfectants were consistently effective, whereas quaternary-ammonium disinfectants had limited activity. Quaternary-ammonium-alcohol and hydrogen-peroxide-based disinfectants varied in effectiveness against C. auris.
