Factors related to outcome of bloodstream infections due to Candida parapsilosis complex. [PDF]
BMC Infect Dis, 2016 Although Candida albicans is the most common cause of fungal blood stream infections (BSIs), infections due to Candida species other than C. albicans are rising. Candida parapsilosis complex has emerged as an important fungal pathogen and became one of the main causes of fungemia in specific geographical areas.

Antifungal susceptibility and virulence attributes of animal-derived isolates of Candida parapsilosis complex [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2014 This study aimed to identify strains of the Candida parapsilosis complex isolated from animals, as well as to assess their in vitro antifungal susceptibility profile and in vitro production of virulence attributes. We used 28 isolates of C. parapsilosis sensu lato recovered from clinically healthy animals. The strains were characterized phenotypically,

Capability of Fluorescent Capillary Electrophoresis To Distinguish Species of the Candida parapsilosis Complex. [PDF]
J Clin Microbiol, 2019 Candida parapsilosis complex (psilosis complex) has three genetically distinct but not easily phenotypically distinguishable cryptic species, C. parapsilosis sensu stricto, Candida metapsilosis, and C. orthopsilosis. It has been reported as one of the most important non-albicans agents commonly detected in invasive candidiasis (1–3).

Candida metapsilosisas the least virulent member of the‘C. parapsilosis’complex [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2010 Results of recent molecular studies have provided evidence of three distinct species within the Candida parapsilosis complex, namely Candida parapsilosis, Candida orthopsilosis and Candida metapsilosis. While there are initial data pertaining to the virulence of these Candida species with respect to reconstituted epidermal and oral epithelial tissues ...
