FONSECAEA PEDROSOI – A CAUSE OF OCCULAR CHROMOBLASTOMYCOSIS

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, 2021
Fonsecaea pedrosoi (F. pedrosoi) is dematiaceous fungus and is the most common cause for chromoblastomycosis. It affects the exposed skin, mostly of the lower extremities. Arare case of mycotic keratitis was diagnosed in our hospital caused by F. pedrosoi.

Lipases of Fonsecaea pedrosoi and Phialophora verrucosa

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1989
Lipase activity was demonstrable titrimetrically in the culture filtrates of Fonsecaea pedrosoi and Phialophora verrucosa on the 6th day of incubation reaching a peak on the 15th and 12th days respectively for the two fungi. Purified lipases of F. pedrosoi and P.

FREEZE‐ETCHING OBSERVATIONS OF Fonsecaea pedrosoi

The Journal of Dermatology, 1977
ABSTRACTThe fine structure of Fonsecaea pedrosoi was studied by freeze‐etching techniques. The structure of the cell wall as seen in Trichophyton groups was not observed. The invaginations were clearly shown in the plasma membrane. Three‐dimensional views of the fine structure were presented.

Characterization of an ecto-ATPase activity in Fonsecaea pedrosoi

Archives of Microbiology, 2006
In this work, we characterized an ecto-ATPase activity in intact mycelial forms of Fonsecaea pedrosoi, the primary causative agent of chromoblastomycosis. In the presence of 1 mM EDTA, fungal cells hydrolyzed adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) at a rate of 84.6 +/- 11.3 nmol Pi h(-1) mg(-1) mycelial dry weight.

Fonsecaea pedrosoi produces ferricrocin and can utilize different host iron sources

Fungal Biology, 2023
The survival of living organisms depends on iron, one of the most abundant metals in the Earth's crust. Nevertheless, this micronutrient is poorly available in our aerobic atmosphere as well as inside the mammalian host. This problem is circumvented by the expression of high affinity iron uptake machineries, including the production of siderophores, in

Exoantigen test for Cladosporium bantianum, Fonsecaea pedrosoi, and Phialophora verrucosa

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1986
Exoantigens from 10-day-old cultures of 100 isolates of pathogenic and saprophytic dematiaceous fungi were analyzed by the exoantigen test. Antisera to Cladosporium bantianum ATCC 10958, Fonsecaea pedrosoi CDC AMO-B06, and Phialophora verrucosa CDC AMO-C12 were prepared in New Zealand rabbits immunized with soluble antigens from 1-month-old cultures ...
