Uncommon Candida Species Fungemia among Cancer Patients, Houston, Texas, USA

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
Many uncommon Candida species that cause bloodstream infections (BSIs) are not well-characterized. We investigated the epidemiology, antifungal use, susceptibility patterns, and factors associated with all-cause death among cancer patients in whom ...

Synthesis of New Glycometronidazole Compounds With Antifungal and Antifungal Biofilm Activity

open access: yesChemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 106, Issue 2, August 2025.
Novel glyco‐triazole‐metronidazole compounds obtained via a click chemistry reaction—used as antifungal and antifungal biofilm agents. Subsequent antifungal tests showed good results for a number of compounds which are believed to essentially function as a bioactive “Trojan horse.” ABSTRACT Carbohydrates are well known to be one of the most abundant ...

Rapid and direct quantification of viable Candida species in whole blood by use of immunomagnetic separation and solid-phase cytometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Candida species are a common source of nosocomial bloodstream infections in critically ill patients. The sensitivity of the traditional diagnostic procedure based on blood culture is variable, and it usually takes 2 to 4 days before growth of Candida ...

In vitro antifungal susceptibility patterns of planktonic and sessile Candida kefyr clinical isolates [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Mycology, 2017
The activity of fluconazole, amphotericin B, caspofungin and micafungin was determined using XTT-based fungal damage assays against planktonic cells, early and mature biofilms of Candida kefyr. Median MICs of planktonic cells were 0.25 mg/l, 0.25 mg/l, 0.5 mg/l, and 0.06 mg/l for fluconazole, amphotericin B, caspofungin, and micafungin, respectively ...
