The Usefulness of Mannan Antigen and Anti-mannan Anti-body in the Diagnosis of Candidemia
, 2023 Abstract Background Candida species are among the important nosocomial infection agents. Since morbidity and mortality are high in invasive candidiasis, early diagnosis is crucial. Hence, rapid serologic tests are needed for diagnosis. One of these methods is the detection of mannan antigen (Mn) and anti-mannan antibody (A-Mn) in the blood ...

Stem Microsome Preparation and Mannan Synthase Activity Assay
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Mannans are hemicellulosic polysaccharides and are present in cell walls of all land plants. Mannan polysaccharides are synthesized by two enzymes, mannan synthase (ManS) for backbone (mannan or glucomannan) synthesis and galactomannan galactosyl ...

The human gut Firmicute Roseburia intestinalis is a primary degrader of dietary β-mannans
Nature Communications, 2019 How dietary β-mannans are utilized by gut Gram-positive bacteria is unclear. Here, the authors uncover the enzymatic pathway for β-mannan metabolism in Roseburia intestinalis and show that these polysaccharides promote beneficial gut bacteria ...

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden
ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...
