Antifungal-resistant Mucorales in different indoor environments

Mycology, 2019
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 ...

Polysaccharides Cell Wall Architecture of Mucorales [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Invasive fungal infections are some of the most life-threatening infectious diseases in the hospital setting. In industrialized countries, the most common fungal species isolated from immunocompromised patients are Candida and Aspergillus spp. However, the number of infections due to Mucorales spp. is constantly increasing and little is known about the

Blood Mucorales PCR to track down Aspergillus and Mucorales co-infections in at-risk hematology patients: A case-control study

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
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 ...

Clinical performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing for distinction and diagnosis of Mucorales infection and colonization [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
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 ...

Development of a monoclonal antibody and a lateral-flow device for the rapid detection of a Mucorales-specific biomarker

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Mucoromycosis is a highly aggressive angio-invasive disease of humans caused by fungi in the zygomycete order, Mucorales. While Rhizopus arrhizus is the principal agent of mucoromycosis, other Mucorales fungi including Apophysomyces, Cunninghamella ...
