Ultrastructure of Candida parapsilosis endocarditis [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1984 We used light microscopy and scanning and transmission electron microscopy to study the structure of Candida parapsilosis vegetations on five surgically removed porcine bioprosthetic valves. Scanning electron microscopy revealed a "mossy" amorphous surface. In some areas, C. parapsilosis cells could be seen below the surface layer.
