Abstract
A simple, accessible and cost effective method of crystallographic identification of microorganisms has been developed. It allows rapid and sufficiently reliable identification of many clinically significant pathogens based on their crystallogenic properties. The use of the crystallographic method substantially accelerated and simplified the identification of Candida spp. when compared with traditional methods of identification of microorganisms.
