Crossover between the control of fungal pathogens in medicine and the wider environment, and the threat of antifungal resistance

Plant Pathology, Volume 71, Issue 1, Page 131-149, January 2022., 2022
The origin and emergence of resistance to antifungal compounds are evaluated and potential “hot spots” identified for major life‐theatening fungal human pathogens in medical and environmental settings. Abstract Fungal propagules existing in the natural environment can easily be transmitted to the human body, mostly by inhalation of contaminated air or ...

Acupuncture‐Associated Mycobacterium massiliense and Scedosporium Infections Superimposed by Tetanus

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Tetanus has rarely been reported in Thailand since 1982 due to 100% tetanus vaccination coverage during the neonatal period of life. However, the reemergence of tetanus has been observed in our country during the past decade, mainly due to the increasing number of migrants traveling from neighboring countries in search of work.

Bis(N‐picolinamido)cobalt(II) Complexes Display Antifungal Activity toward Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus

ChemMedChem, Volume 16, Issue 20, Page 3210-3221, October 15, 2021., 2021
Bis(N‐picolinamide)cobalt(II) complexes containing trans isothiocyanate ligands are reported to have significantly enhanced activity toward fungal species, when compared the cis complexes. They display >80 % growth inhibition of fungal strains and no reported toxicity toward bacterial species or mammalian cells.
