Characteristics of Biofilms Formed by C. parapsilosis Causing an Outbreak in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Background: We dealt with the occurrence of an outbreak of Candida parapsilosis in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in September 2020. There have been several reports of C. parapsilosis outbreaks in NICUs. In this study we describe our investigation

Sequence and analysis of the genome of the pathogenic yeast Candida orthopsilosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Candida orthopsilosis is closely related to the fungal pathogen Candida parapsilosis. However, whereas C. parapsilosis is a major cause of disease in immunosuppressed individuals and in premature neonates, C.

Kinetic studies of Candida parapsilosis phagocytosis by macrophages and detection of intracellular survival mechanisms [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Even though the number of Candida infections due to non-albicans species like C. parapsilosis has been increasing, little is known about their pathomechanisms. Certain aspects of C.
