Germination of blastospores ofHistoplasma capsulatum

Medical Mycology, 1970
Factors affecting blastospore germination by the dimorphic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum were studied. Those incubated at 23°C in distilled water, physiological saline, phosphate buffered saline, or in distilled water with KCl, CaCl2 and MgCl2 did not germinate. None of the tested carbohydrates, or keto- and fatty acids stimulated germination.

Biosynthesis of Resveratrol in Blastospore of the Macrofungus Tremella fuciformis

Molecular Biotechnology, 2015
Tremella fuciformis is a known edible macrofungus that has medicinal value. It is widely cultivated in China and its products are distributed worldwide. In this study, a novel bioconversion system was established to produce resveratrol in the blastospore of T. fuciformis (bTf).

The Effect of 5-Fluorocytosine on the Blastospores and Hyphae of Candida Albicans

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1979
In Candida albicans the continued increase in dry weight, in cell volume and in hyphal length during 5FC treatment is mainly due to increased amount of carbohydrate despite the decreased amounts of nucleic acids. Incorporation studies with 32PO4 (for RNA) in C.

Impact of osmotic stress on production, morphology, and fitness of Beauveria bassiana blastospores

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2023
Beauveria bassiana is a cosmopolitan entomopathogenic fungus that can infect over 1000 insect species. During growth inside the host, B. bassiana transitions from hyphal to yeast-like unicellular growth as blastospores. Blastospores are well suited as an active ingredient in biopesticides due to their ease of production by liquid fermentation.

Uptake of metabolites by germinating blastospores ofHistoplasma capsulatum

Medical Mycology, 1978
The uptake of radioactive L-leucine, L-glutamic acid, and guanine was monitored during blastospore germination of Histoplasma capsulatum. Blastospores of H. capsulatum, grown in Salvin's medium at 37 degrees C for 48 h and shifted to 23 degrees C, germinated within 24 h.

Biological Control of Ixodes ricinus Larvae and Nymphs With Metarhizium anisopliae Blastospores

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2016
The entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae is used as a biological pest control agent against various arthropod species, including ticks. However, the efficacy depends on tick species, tick stage and fungus strain. We studied the effect of M. anisopliae on engorged larvae and nymphs of Ixodes ricinus, the most abundant tick species in Europe ...

Permeabilization of Beauveria bassiana blastospores for in situ enzymatic assays

Mycologia, 2003
Vigorous agitation of an aqueous suspension of blastospores (BS) of Beauveria bassiana mixed with nine volumes of a 1:4 (v/v) mixture of toluene:ethanol (95%) for 10 min permits blastospore permeabilization. Agitation results in greater membrane permeabilization than heating blastospores in the presence of toluene:ethanol or the detergents Triton X-100,

Vascular clearance of blastospore and pseudomycelial phaseCandida albicans

Medical Mycology, 1977
Blastospore phase and pseudomycelial phase Candida albicans were infused at a constant rate into the proximal aorta of rabbits and simultaneous quantitative blood cultures were obtained from the abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava. Arteriovenous differences were greater with pseudomycelial phase C. albicans at all concentrations tested.

The Phagocytosis of Candida Albicans Blastospores and Germ Tubes by Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes

Dermatologica, 2009
This in vitro study investigates the phagocytosis and killing rate of Candida albicans blastospores and germ tubes by polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Suspensions of C. albicans blastospores and germ tubes were incubated for 60 and 150 min with a neutrophil suspension.
