AB Adherence of Malassezia yeast cells to human keratinocytes was assessed
by a novel technique using double-sided Sellotape. Although adherence
using double-sided Sellotape is still merely a model for in vivo
adherence, it approximates to the conditions found on the skin surface.
There were no differences in adhesive properties to human keratinocytes
between Malassezia strains originating from HIV-positive and
HIV-negative patients with seborrhoeic dermatitis, nor was there a
relationship between the severity of seborrhoeic dermatitis and in vitro
adherence to human keratinocytes.
