Screening protocol for Torulopsis (Candida) glabrata [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1996
A screening test has been developed for the presumptive identification of Torulopsis (Candida) glabrata from other common clinical isolates of yeast-like fungi. An interlaboratory comparison of a protocol consisting of morphology on cornmeal Tween 80 agar and trehalose fermentation at 42 degrees C was successful in differentiating T.

Impact of glucocorticoids and rapamycin on autophagy in Candida glabrata-infected macrophages from BALB/c mice

Frontiers in Immunology
ObjectiveIn the defense against microorganisms like Candida albicans, macrophages recruit LC3(Microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3) to the periplasm, engaging in the elimination process through the formation of a single-membrane phagosome ...

Membership and behavior of ultra-low-diversity pathogen communities present in the gut of humans during prolonged critical illness. [PDF]

, 2014
UnlabelledWe analyzed the 16S rRNA amplicon composition in fecal samples of selected patients during their prolonged stay in an intensive care unit (ICU) and observed the emergence of ultra-low-diversity communities (1 to 4 bacterial taxa) in 30% of the ...

A Cationic Supramolecule With Potent Antifungal Activity, Single‐Species Selectivity, and Strong Synergy With Echinocandins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a new membrane‐active antifungal design, Gua‐SMACS‐16, that exhibits high potency and single‐species selectivity for C. tropicalis while sparing other close species in the Candida genus. Moreover, when combining with caspofungin, a clinical antifungal drug inhibiting 1,3‐β‐glucan synthase, they exhibit ultra‐strong synergy across a panel ...

Synergistic Interactions between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, Candida parapsilosis as well as Candida tropicalis in the Formation of Polymicrobial Biofilms

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
The interactions between pathogens during infection and the impact of these interactions on drug effectiveness are poorly understood, making polymicrobial infections challenging to treat. During an infection, cross-interactions between bacteria and fungi

Candida and Porphyromonas gingivalis: the effect on wound closure in vitro

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2017
Microorganisms play a role in oral mucositis after cancer therapy. The current study explored the hypothesis that Candida spp. alone and together with Porphyromonas gingivalis cause delayed healing of oral ulcerations due to the inhibition of wound ...
