Double-Pole Approximation in Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory [PDF]
, 2005 A simple approximate solution to the linear response equations of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is given. This extends the single-pole approximation (SPA) to two strongly-coupled poles. The analysis provides both an illustration of how

Portrait of matrix gene expression in Candida glabrata biofilms with stress induced by different drugs [PDF]
, 2018 (1) Background: Candida glabrata is one of the most significant Candida species associated with severe cases of candidiasis. Biofilm formation is an important feature, closely associated with antifungal resistance, involving alterations of gene ...

Low Prevalence of fks1 Hot Spot 1 Mutations in a Worldwide Collection of Candida Strains [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2010 ABSTRACT We evaluated the prevalence of fks1 hot spot (HS) 1 mutations among 133 Candida strains from six species displaying various caspofungin MIC values (from ≤0.008 to >8 μg/ml). Only 4 (2.9%) strains displayed FKS1 HS1 amino acid substitutions: 1 C. albicans

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background The incidence of Candida tropicalis isolation is increasing in hospital settings. High azole resistance and mortality rates make it a pathogen that requires further analysis. Methods Fourteen azole resistant Candida glabrata clinical isolates were collected from a Lebanese hospital and analysed through whole genome sequencing for ...

Combined antifungal resistance and biofilm tolerance: the global threat of Candida auris [PDF]
, 2019 The enigmatic yeast Candida auris has emerged over the last decade and rapidly penetrated our consciousness. The global threat from this multidrug-resistant yeast has generated a call to arms from within the medical mycology community.

Molecular Epidemiology of Candida Auris Outbreak in a Major Secondary-Care Hospital in Kuwait
Journal of Fungi, 2020 The emerging, often multidrug-resistant Candida auris is increasingly being associated with outbreaks in healthcare facilities. Here we describe the molecular epidemiology of a C.
