Emergence of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa among pet animals: a possible public health risk on the move [PDF]

BMC Microbiology
Rhodotorulae are environmentally ubiquitous yeasts that were originally considered non-pathogenic. However, over the last fifty years, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa (R. mucilaginosa) has established itself as an emerging opportunistic pathogen incriminated in

Glutathione reductase plays a role in the metabolism of methylmercury degradation in Rhodotorula mucilaginosa [PDF]

Microbiology Spectrum
Mercury pollution is a kind of heavy metal pollution with great harm and strong toxicity which exists worldwide. Some microorganisms can convert highly toxic methylmercury into inorganic mercury compounds with significantly reduced toxicity.

Fungistatic Effect of Phthalide Lactones on Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. [PDF]

Molecules, 2023
Currently, there is an increasing number of cases of fungal infections caused by opportunistic strains of the yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, mainly in immunocompromised patients during hospitalization. The excessive use of antibiotics and azole compounds increases the risk of resistance to microorganisms.
