Effect of drying onParacoccidioides brasiliensis

Medical Mycology, 1971
The susceptibility to drying of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis growing on sterilized soils, was investigated using 2 strains with different sporulating capacities. Decreased fungal viability was noted during the 31 day experimental periods. The sporulating strain surpassed its initial viability at the fifth day when 75 days old culture was used, but not

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis

2012
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is found only in Latin America. It is endemic in Mexico, Central America, and South America. Most cases (80%) have been reported from Brazil, followed by Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, and Argentina. Most cases occur in tropical and subtropical forests, where temperatures are mild and humidity is high ...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, Paracoccidioidomycosis, and Antifungal Antibiotics

Current Drug Target -Infectious Disorders, 2005
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the causative agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), a human systemic, chronic and progressive mycosis. Preferred antifungals are sulfamethoxazol-trimethoprim, itraconazole, amphotericin B. Treatment is lengthy, the drugs may have undesirable side effects, and some are costly.

Production of proteinase and phospholipase by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis

Mycopathologia, 1999
We have investigated the production of proteinase and phospholipase by 20 different isolates of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. Isolates were grown in Bacto-peptone, Dextrose, pH 5.5, agar slants, at 27 degrees C for 30 days, and cultures were transferred onto Petri dishes containing basis medium and bovine serum albumin fraction V and sterile egg yolk ...

Ecology of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis

2018
The relationship between Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and its environment is still a matter of debate as the fungus microniche is yet to be discovered. P. brasiliensis has deceived many of the researchers interested in finding its permanent residency. Many skin-testing surveys have been conducted with the aim of delimiting the areas of endemicity and ...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis – the man-hater

Mycologist, 2002
Some fungi are found only in specific geographical regions. The human pathogen Paracoccidioides brasiliensis has only rarely been isolated in nature and incidences of infections are restricted to Central and Southern America. Most commonly infected individuals are not urban dwellers, but rather farmers and people living in mountainous areas.

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Ultrastructural Findings

2018
This chapter attempts to summarize ultrastructural findings on the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis. The fungi are not easily amenable to ultrastructure cytological examination due to the chitinous nature of their cell walls. The basic techniques for the preparation of P. brasiliensis intended for electron microscopy are very similar to those applied to
