Comparative pathogenicity of Scedosporium species in murine model of systemic scedosporiosis. [PDF]
Systemic scedosporiosis is a devastating emerging fungal infection caused by several species of the genus Scedosporium in immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals. In this study, we compared the virulence of different Scedosporium species in a murine model of systemic scedosporiosis by survival assays, fungal burden and histopathological ...
