Identification of genetic transcriptional factors involved in non-Candida albicans Candida species biofilm development [PDF]

, 2016
Candida albicans is the major cause of candidosis, however recently non- C. albicans Candida (NCAC) species have emerged as common pathogens. One of the most important virulence factors is the ability to form biofilms that have important clinical ...

Evaluation of FilmArray Multiplex PCR Test Results in Bloodstream Infections in Oncological Patients

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 9, May 2026.
In this study conducted at an oncology hospital, BCID2 panel results for the rapid identification of microorganisms and resistance genes in positive blood culture samples were compared with conventional culture methods. The BCID2 panel provided faster results and showed a high correlation with traditional methods.

Qualitative and quantitative change of the tolerance to liposomal amphotericin B triggered by biofilm maturation in C. parapsilosis

Medical Mycology, 2019
Abstract Candida parapsilosis is an emerging opportunistic pathogen present in both clinical and natural environment, with a strong frequency of biofilm forming strains. While the drugs active against biofilm are rare, liposomal amphotericin B is credited with an antibiofilm activity in some opportunistic species of the genus Candida ...

Prevalence, Distribution, and Antifungal Susceptibility Profiles of Candida parapsilosis , C. orthopsilosis , and C. metapsilosis in a Tertiary Care Hospital [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2009
ABSTRACT Candida parapsilosis , an emergent agent of nosocomial infections, was previously made up of a complex of three genetically distinct groups (groups I, II, and III). Recently, the C. parapsilosis groups have been renamed as distinct species: C. parapsilosis sensu

In vitro method to study antifungal perfusion in Candida Biofilms [PDF]

, 2005
Antimycotic perfusion through Candida biofilms was demonstrated by a modification of a simple in vitro diffusion cell bioassay system. Using this model, the perfusion of three commonly used antifungal agents, amphotericin B, fluconazole, and flucytosine,
