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
