Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight intact cell mass spectrometry to detect emerging pathogenic Candida species [PDF]

, 2011
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight intact cell mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-ICMS) was used to differentiate pathogenic Candida species, difficult to identify by traditional methods such as growth and biochemical reactions. Results

Comparison of Candida parapsilosis, Candida orthopsilosis, and Candida metapsilosis adhesive properties and pathogenicity

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2013
Retrospective studies indicate that Candida metapsilosis and Candida orthopsilosis each represents 1-10% of the infections/colonisations attributed to C. parapsilosis by conventional biochemical tests. Little is known on the virulence properties of these fungi and on their role in the establishment/progression of the infection.

Molecular Identification and Echinocandin Susceptibility of Candida parapsilosis Complex Bloodstream Isolates in Italy, 2007-2014. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
The Candida parapsilosis group encompasses three species: C. parapsilosis, C. orthopsilosis, and C. metapsilosis. Here, we describe the incidence and echinocandin susceptibility profile of bloodstream isolates of these three species collected from ...

Azole Resistance in Candida parapsilosis From Patients With Burns in Mexico: A Genomic and Phylogenetic Analysis [PDF]

Mycoses
ABSTRACT Background Candida species are common causes of nosocomial infections. Candida parapsilosis has emerged as an important pathogen. Mortality rates associated with invasive C. parapsilosis infections range from 14.5% to 47%, with azole resistance estimated between 4% and 15%.

Genetic diversity of medically important and emerging Candida species causing invasive infection [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Genetic variation in the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region has been studied among fungi. However, the numbers of ITS sequence polymorphisms in the various Candida species and their associations with sources of ...

Candida parapsilosis,Candida orthopsilosis, andCandida metapsilosisvirulence in the non-conventional hostGalleria mellonella [PDF]

Virulence, 2013
The incidence of fungal infections due to C. parapsilosis and closely related cryptic species (-psilosis complex) has increased in the last few years, but differences in virulence among these species have not been widely studied. Fifteen clinical isolates of C. parapsilosis, C. orthopsilosis, and C.
