Pathogenesis of the Candida parapsilosis Complex in the Model Host Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2018 Caenorhabditis elegans is a valuable tool as an infection model toward the study of Candida species. In this work, we endeavored to develop a C. elegans-Candida parapsilosis infection model by using the fungi as a food source. Three species of the C. parapsilosis complex (C.

Postantifungal Effect of Micafungin against the Species Complexes of Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Micafungin is an effective antifungal agent useful for the therapy of invasive candidiasis. Candida albicans is the most common cause of invasive candidiasis; however, infections due to non-C.

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 ...

In vitro synergy of echinocandins with triazoles against fluconazole-resistant Candida parapsilosis complex isolates [PDF]
Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020 Introduction: Candida parapsilosis (C. parapsilosis) is a common non-albicans Candida species ranked as the second common cause of bloodstream infections. Azole resistance and elevated echinocandin MICs have been reported for these fungi.

Phenotype-driven strategies for screening Candida parapsilosis complex for molecular identification. [PDF]
Braz J Microbiol, 2018 In this study, phenotypic methods presented >80% agreement with the molecular identification of 59 Candida parapsilosis complex. Growth at 15% NaCl or pH 7.0 significantly reduced cfu-counts of Candida orthopsilosis, suggesting these conditions may support the development of phenotypic methods for the differentiation of the cryptic species of C ...

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of Candida parapsilosis complex isolates from a Lebanese hospital. [PDF]
Sci RepThe opportunistic pathogen Candida parapsilosis is a major causative agent of candidiasis leading to death in immunocompromised individuals. Azoles are the first line of defense in their treatment. The purpose of this study was to characterize eight fluconazole-resistant and sensitive C.
