– The validity of a simplified diagnostic aid, Oricult‐N, for detection of oral candidoses was compared with smears stained according to the periodic acid‐SchilFs method. Samples were taken from 80 locations in 36 patients with lesions suspected for candidal infection. There was a statistically significant correlation between the two methods ( P < 0.001).
