Pythium insidiosum Keratitis: Past, Present, and Future. [PDF]

Ophthalmol Ther, 2022
Pythium insidiosum (PI) is an oomycete, a protist belonging to the clade Stramenopila. PI causes vision-threatening keratitis closely mimicking fungal keratitis (FK), hence it is also labeled as "parafungus". PI keratitis was initially confined to Thailand, USA, China, and Australia, but with growing clinical awareness and improvement in diagnostic ...

Canine Pythiosis - Isolation and Identification of Pythium Insidiosum [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 1989
Pythium insidiosum was isolated from the subcutaneous tissue of a 1-year-old tan crossbreed dog and from the intestinal tract of an 18-month-old Samoyed male. Gomori's methenamine silver stain was superior to hematoxylin and eosin in demonstrating the organism in tissue sections. The agent was identified as P.

Antigenic relationship between the animal and human pathogen Pythium insidiosum and nonpathogenic Pythium species [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1987
Identification of the newly named pathogenic oomycete Pythium insidiosum and its differentiation from other Pythium species by morphologic criteria alone can be difficult and time-consuming. Antigenic analysis by fluorescent-antibody and immunodiffusion precipitin techniques demonstrated that the P.
