Direct examination of Candida albicans and its isolation from the tongues of generally healthy patients with skin disease was done. When a few hyphal fungal elements were detected by KOH method, the direct examination was determined to be positive. The positive rate by KOH method differed with age; there was no positive case in 162 patients under 60 years, however, at 61 years and above the positive rate was 12 of 161 (7.5%). Clinical features of the positive cases were as follows: 7 cases with smooth red tongue, 4 cases with white yellowish plaques on normal-looking tongue, and 1 case with black hairy tongue. Cultures were taken by cotton swab from the tongues of all patients. C. albicans was isolated from 87 of 161 (54.0%) patients 61 years and above, and 16 of 162 (9.9%) under 60 years.Both the positive rate of direct examination and the isolation of C. albicans of those 61 years and above were thus much higher than those of individuals 60 years and under, and C. albicans was much greater on the tongues of many aged healthy people.
