Polymerase chain reaction assay for specific identification of Candida guilliermondii (Pichia guilliermondii)

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2009
The incidence rates of fungemia caused by Candida guilliermondii have been increasing over the past several years. Although still relatively rare (1.3% of all cases of fungemia in Japan), most cases of C. guilliermondii fungemia occur in patients with cancer or hematological malignancy and their mortality rate is high. As C.

Production and characterization of an extracellular lipase from Candida guilliermondii [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2014
Extracellular lipases from the endophytic yeast Candida guilliermondii isolated from castor leaves (Ricinus communis L.) were produced using low-cost raw materials such as agro-industrial residues and applying them in the esterification of oleic acid for evaluating their potential use in biodiesel production.

Diagnostic Performance of Direct PCR Assay for Candida auris Detection: A Comparison of Liquid Amies Transport Medium and Fungal Enrichment Broth

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 17, September 2026.
This study evaluated a direct PCR assay for rapid Candida auris screening from skin swabs using two transport media. The direct PCR assay demonstrated high sensitivity (92.0%–96.0%) and rapid turnaround time (~3 h). Liquid Amies medium showed a more favorable specificity profile, supporting its practical utility for screening.

Purification and characterization of acetyl esterase from Candida guilliermondii [PDF]

Letters in Applied Microbiology, 2000
An extracellular acetyl esterase (EC 3.1.1.6) from Candida guilliermondii NRRL Y-17257 was purified to homogeneity by acetone precipitation and QAE sepharose anion-exchange chromatography. The enzyme was a monomer with an apparent molecular weight of 67 kDa and a pI of 7.6. It had maximum activity at pH 7.5 and at 50-60 degrees C.
