Next‐Generation Sequencing Expands the Diagnostic Armamentarium for Talaromyces marneffei Infection in Patients With Diverse Immune Status

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Practice, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) has emerged as a promising tool for identifying rare fungal pathogens. This study evaluates the clinical utility of mNGS for the timely diagnosis of Talaromyces marneffei (TM) infection in patients with diverse immune statuses, particularly focusing on its diagnostic performance in culture ...

Fungal DNA‐barcoding on a chip: Magnetoresistive biosensors for yeast infection diagnosis

open access: yesVIEW, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
The development of a fungal pathogen identification chip is herein demonstrated. Hybridization dynamics were tested against 58 species in silico and 4 species on chip. 95% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 98% specificity and femtomolar limit of detection were achieved. Future perspectives include the integration of sample pre‐treatment modules.

Identification and Distribution of Potentially Azole‐Resistant Airborne Fungi in Outdoor Environments of the Basque Country

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Air samples collected at three areas in each province of the Basque Country (Spain) were incubated at 25°C and 37°C for Sabouraud plates (SAB) and at 37°C for plates supplemented with voriconazol (SAB‐VCZ). The potentially resistant isolates from SAB‐VCZ plates were identified and their abundance and diversity were determined.

Climate Change, Natural Disasters, and Cutaneous Fungal Infections

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 1349-1355, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Fungal infections are an important source of morbidity and mortality that can manifest as superficial or invasive diseases. Diagnostic techniques for human fungal pathogens remain problematic, and multi‐drug resistance is emerging. This review addresses the potential emergence of new fungal pathogens in changing environments and reported ...

Identification of Filamentous Fungi: An Evaluation of Three MALDI‐TOF Mass Spectrometry Systems

open access: yesMycoses, Volume 68, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Identification of filamentous fungi still poses a major challenge to laboratories. Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionisation time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF MS) is a promising tool, since it offers low‐cost and fast results. Different MALDI‐TOF MS systems are available for routine laboratories.

Improvement of β‐Xylosidase and Endoxylanase Activities in Talaromyces amestolkiae by Genetic Manipulation of the Transcriptional Activator XlnR

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2025.
A successful transformation procedure for the genetic manipulation of the fungus Talaromyces amestolkiae was developed, enabling the forced expression of the transcriptional activator XlnR. A mutant version of XlnR carrying a Val785Phe substitution led to remarkably higher β‐xylosidase and endoxylanase activities compared to the wild‐type strain, which
