In vitro sensitivity of Malassezia furfur isolates from HIV-positive and negative patients to antifungal agents [PDF]

open access: yesBiomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2023
Introduction. Malassezia is a lipophilic and lipid-dependent yeast genus belonging to the skin microbiota of humans and other animals. However, due to dysbiosis processes or other factors in the host, this yeast can cause different pathologies, ranging ...

Characterisation of Antifungal Resistance to Azoles in Colombian Isolates of Malassezia spp. [PDF]

open access: yesMycoses
ABSTRACT Background Malassezia genus includes lipodependent commensal yeasts of humans and animals' skin and mucous membranes. It can cause dermatological pathologies, and azoles are mainly used for treatment. However, in vitro susceptibility testing has shown decreased sensitivity to these antifungals.

Why Do These Yeasts Smell So Good? Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Produced by Malassezia Species in the Exponential and Stationary Growth Phases

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Malassezia synthesizes and releases volatile organic compounds (VOCs), small molecules that allow them to carry out interaction processes. These lipid-dependent yeasts belong to the human skin mycobiota and are related to dermatological diseases. However,
