Virulence and biofilm susceptibility of Candida tropicalis was assessed.
The strains showed high hemolytic factor and biofilm production.
Caspofungin and amphotericin B showed better results against mature biofilms.
Paradoxical biofilm growth was observed at elevated concentrations of caspofungin.
High mortality of C. elegans was observed when worms were fed with C. tropicalis.
