<i>Candida glabrata</i> Isolated From Tubo-Ovarian Abscess Cultures in Two Immunocompetent Patients. [PDF]
Persistent 7.3 × 5.8 cm TOA unresponsive to 4 weeks of antibiotic treatment and percutaneous drainage, growing Candida glabrata on cultures. ABSTRACT In this clinical case report, we present two immunocompetent patients with tubo‐ovarian abscesses (TOAs) that were positive for Candida glabrata.

Bronchoscopy in the diagnosis of pulmonary blastomycosis
Objectives: Diagnosing pulmonary blastomycosis (PB) requires the detection of Blastomyces dermatitidis in pulmonary secretions or tissue, which can be achieved via bronchoscopic procedures like bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) or brush and transbronchial ...

Human and Canine Pulmonary Blastomycosis, North Carolina, 2001–2002
We investigated a cluster of blastomycosis in 8 humans and 4 dogs in a rural North Carolina community. Delayed diagnosis, difficulty isolating Blastomyces dermatitidis in nature, and lack of a sensitive and specific test to assess exposure make outbreaks

The Susceptibility of Blastomyces dermatitidis to Drying
SummaryThe effect of drying on the loss of viability of Blastomyces dermatitidis in sterile soil is reported. 1. An average of 90% loss of viability occurred after 5 days storage at room temperature in cotton plugged tubes or in a desiccator. The loss increased to 95% after 11 days or longer.
