Rapid identification of Candida albicans, C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis and C. krusei by species-specific PCR of large subunit ribosomal DNA [PDF]
A rapid PCR-based method for the identification of four Candida species is described. Primers to conserved sequences in the V3 region of large subunit rDNA were used to amplify DNA from C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis and C. krusei. The sequences were aligned and areas of non-concordance were used to design four species-specific forward ...

Postantifungal Effect of Micafungin against the Species Complexes of Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis. [PDF]
Micafungin is an effective antifungal agent useful for the therapy of invasive candidiasis. Candida albicans is the most common cause of invasive candidiasis; however, infections due to non-C.

Novel 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives as promising anti-Candida agents endowed with anti-oxidant and chelating properties [PDF]
Pursuing our recent outcomes regarding the antifungal activity of N-substituted 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones, we synthesized thirty-six new derivatives introducing aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and heteroaromatic moieties at N1-hydrazine connected with C2 position

Background Candida parapsilosis typically is a commensal of human skin. However, when host immune defense is compromised or the normal microflora balance is disrupted, C. parapsilosis transforms itself into an opportunistic pathogen.

High prevalence of itraconazole resistance among Candida parapsilosis isolated from Iran [PDF]
Background and Purpose: Candida parapsilosis isolates usually have a low minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against azoles. Although Candida parapsilosis isolates usually have low MICs against azoles, recent studies candida invasive infections due to

Identification of yeasts present in artisanal yoghurt and traditionally fermented milks consumed in the northern part of Cameroon [PDF]
Bacteria generally ferment milk but, sometimes, yeasts are found in fermented milks. The presence of these yeasts in the microbial community of some fermented milks could be intentional or accidental.
