IntroductionSerum Mucorales PCR can precede the final diagnosis of invasive mucormycosis by several days or weeks and could therefore be useful as a non-invasive screening tool.MethodsWe assessed the performance of a commercial Mucorales PCR assay ...

Cutaneous Mucormycosis Clinically Mimicking Necrotizing Fasciitis in a Patient Without Active Immunosuppression. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cutaneous mucormycosis is a rare invasive fungal infection caused by fungi of the order Mucorales. Although it classically occurs in immunocompromised hosts, traumatic or minor cutaneous inoculation may result in infection even in patients without active immunosuppression.

Diagnosis of Mucormycosis: Current Situation, Challenges and Future Prospects. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Mucormycosis, an aggressive fungal infection caused by members of the order Mucorales, progresses rapidly and is associated with high mortality, particularly in immunocompromised hosts such as patients with uncontrolled diabetes, transplant recipients or those with COVID‐19‐associated immunosuppression. Early diagnosis remains challenging with

Antifungal-resistant Mucorales in different indoor environments
This paper sought to address the prevalence of Mucorales in different indoor environments in Portugal. Environmental samples (183 in total) were collected at dwellings (n = 79) and workplaces (bakeries, swine farms, taxis, waste-sorting plants) (n = 93 ...

Clinical performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing for distinction and diagnosis of Mucorales infection and colonization [PDF]
Mucormycosis is a lethal fungal infection disease with high mortality rate. However, investigations assessing the value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) for distinguishing Mucorales infection from colonization are currently insufficient ...

Antifungal activity of Taurolidine against Mucorales: An in vitro study on clinical isolates [PDF]
Background and Purpose: Taurolidine is active against a wide variety of micro organisms, including bacteria and fungi. Mucormycosis is one of the life-threatening opportunistic fungal infections, especially in immunocompromised patients.

High-Temperature-Tolerant Fungus and Oomycetes in Korea, Including Saksenaea longicolla sp. nov.
Global temperatures are steadily increasing, leading to significant changes in microbial diversity and ecology. In the present study, we isolated high-temperature-growing fungi and fungi-like group (Oomycota) strains from freshwater environments of Korea

Mucormycosis and acute kidney injury [PDF]
Mucormycosis, although said to be less common than candidiasis and aspergillosis is becoming increasingly associated with many co-morbid conditions and immunosuppression.
