Galleria mellonella larva has been widely exploited as an infection model for bacteria and fungi. Our laboratory uses this insect as a model for fungal infection caused by the genus Malassezia, in particular, systemic infections caused by Malassezia furfur and Malassezia pachydermatis, which are poorly understood. Here, we describe the G.

Allergenic evaluation of Malassezia furfur crude extracts
Mycopathologia, 2003Crude extracts of the lipophilic yeast Malassezia furfur were obtained from 2, 6, 10 and 28 day old cultures. The in vitro cultivation periods corresponded, respectively, to the lag phase, middle of the log phase, end of log phase and the decline phase of the growth curve, which was based on viable cell counts obtained with a fluorescent viability test.

Intravenous catheter-associated Malassezia furfur fungemia
The American Journal of Medicine, 1987Malassezia furfur, a lipophilic yeast that is the etiologic agent of tinea versicolor, has not been considered as a cause of serious illness in adults in the past. Two adults are described in whom Malassezia furfur fungemia developed while receiving total parenteral nutrition supplemented with lipids.

Anti-Malassezia furfur antibodies in the population.
Mycoses, 1998The authors carried out research into anti-Malassezia precipitating antibodies in the population, specifying the distribution by age and sex. A total of 868 serum specimens from subjects of both sexes, aged between 0 and 80 years, were studied. An immunoelectroprecipitation reaction was used using a M. furfur culture filtrate as antigen.

Intracardiac Mass Complicating Malassezia furfur Fungemia
Chest, 2000Malassezia furfur is a lipophilic yeast known to colonize indwelling catheters. Although progression to vasculitis and sepsis has been described, it has rarely caused fungemia in adults receiving nutrition via an indwelling catheter. Difficulty in diagnosis occurs as M furfur does not grow on routine culture media unless it is supplemented with fatty ...

Peripheral thromboembolism associated with Malassezia Furfur sepsis
The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2002Malassezia furfur fungemia can cause sepsis in low birth weight neonates receiving parenteral lipids through central intravenous catheters. Its presentation has varied from nonspecific signs and symptoms to pulmonary vasculitis and endocarditis. We report the case of a premature infant who developed peripheral thromboembolic phenomena without evidence ...

[Septicemia caused by Malassezia furfur].
Ugeskrift for laeger, 1993A case of septicaemia caused by Malassezia furfur in a newborn patient receiving intravenous nutrition is presented. M. furfur, the well known cause of pityriasis versicolor, is a strict lipophilic yeast, with predilection for indwelling catheters conducting lipid solutions. Since the diagnosis of M.

An improved method for quantitative culture of Malassezia furfur
Research in Microbiology, 1992Quantitative culture of Malassezia furfur from clinically healthy skin in 25 individuals was performed with two different methods using contact plates. The best results were obtained when a glucose peptone yeast extract medium, with the addition of milk, Tween-60, glycerol and glycerol monostearate was used.

Differentiation of three serovars of Malassezia furfur
Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1990Malassezia furfur strains were isolated from the clinically normal skin of 10 volunteers by swabbing four different sites (forehead, ear, back and chest). The strains could be divided into three basic groups on the basis of cultural characteristics.
