Susceptibility assays of Candida tropicalis to miconazole

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 1997
In vitro evaluation of antifungal activity of imidazole derivatives is made difficult by the inhibitory effects of several factors such as inoculum size, growth form of the fungus, incubation temperature, the presence of complex substances, including divalent ions, which strongly influence final results.

Multimodality imaging of Candida tropicalis myositis

Pediatric Radiology, 2007
Fungal myositis is a rare entity that has been described in immunocompromised patients. We present a boy with biopsy proven fungal myositis who was examined with multiple imaging modalities. MR imaging proved to be very effective for diagnostic purposes, while US imaging was able to provide guidance for biopsy.

Phagocyte-mediated killing of Candida tropicalis

Mycopathologia, 1991
Human peripheral monocytes (MO), neutrophils (PMN), and lymphocytes (PBL) were tested for their ability to kill Candida tropicalis. With incubation times between 30 min and 2 h, unstimulated MO and PMN, but not PBL, were efficient killers of C. tropicalis. Both leukocyte subsets were able to kill at minimum 2.5:1 effector to target ratios.

Specific adherence of Candida tropicalis to lysophospholipids

Biochemistry, 1994
Candida species are usually commensal organisms, but they become invasive when the host is immunocompromised. Mechanisms by which these organisms adhere to, colonize, and then invade host tissues are poorly understood. To detect potential host receptors, members of a lipid library were chromatographically separated and then overlaid with Candida ...

Fungus balls due to Candida tropicalis

International Urology and Nephrology, 2011
A 56-year-old Caucasian male was treated for labrynthitis and prescribed meclizine and prednisone without success a week prior to admission. He denied fever or chills. The laboratory examination was significant for WBC 11,000 per mm3; blood glucose level 569 mg/dL; creatinine level of 3.1 mg/dL; and BUN 53 mg/dL.

Candida tropicalis Arthritis and Bursitis

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982
INFECTIONS with Candida organisms have been noted with increasing frequency in immunocompromised patients; however, arthritis rarely occurs. Candida arthritis has been treated with systemic antifungal medications with good results. We report a patient with Candida tropicalis arthritis and bursitis whose condition did not respond to multiple antifungal ...

Candida tropicalis vulvovaginitis.

Obstetrics and gynecology, 1985
In a majority of patients with candidal vulvovaginitis, drug therapy is convenient and effective. A small but significant group of patients remain symptomatic with recurrent, chronic candidiasis. A study of 805 patients was undertaken to delineate microbiologically candidal species. The study revealed that the recurrence rate for Candida tropicalis was

Biotypes of oral Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis isolates.

Journal of medical and veterinary mycology : bi-monthly publication of the International Society for Human and Animal Mycology, 1986
213 oral isolates of Candida albicans and 62 isolates of C. tropicalis were tested for their hydrolytic enzyme profiles with the API ZYM system. One major biotype accounted for more than 50% of the isolates and a number of minor biotypes was recognized in both Candida species.

Candida tropicalis meningitis: a case report

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1981
SummaryA 54-year-old man presented with candida tropicalis meningitis after exploration of the mastoid. He responded well to the combined intravenous administration of amphotericin B and 5 fluorocytosine. But 5 fluorocytosine had to be withdrawn when the candida proved to be resistant to this antifungal agent.
