Evaluating the Potential of Galactosaminogalactan as a Diagnostic Target for Invasive Aspergillosis

Mycoses, Volume 68, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Early diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis (IA) is critical for the initiation of effective antifungal therapy. Currently, detection of galactomannan (GM), a secreted fungal glycan, is the most used culture‐independent diagnostic test for IA. However, limitations in the sensitivity and specificity of this test have led to interest in

Pulmonary scedosporiosis in a patient with acute hematopoietic failure: Diagnosis aided by next-generation sequencing

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
We report the first case of pulmonary scedosporiosis detected by next-generation sequencing (NGS) from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in a 67-year-old male with bronchiectasis and hematopoietic failure.

Synthesis of the Hydroxamate Siderophore Nα-Methylcoprogen B in Scedosporium apiospermum Is Mediated by sidD Ortholog and Is Required for Virulence

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Scedosporium species rank second among the filamentous fungi capable to colonize chronically the respiratory tract of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Nevertheless, there is little information on the mechanisms underpinning their virulence.

Induced Chronic Rhinosinusitis in Rats Leads to Secondary Changes in Sinonasal Microbiota

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The microbiota may play a role in maintaining and perpetuating inflammation in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This study aimed to induce CRS in rats and evaluate microbiota composition compared to controls. Methods Sixteen male Wistar rats were used.

PROSTHETIC VALVE ENDOCARDITIS CAUSED BY SCEDOSPORIUM APIOSPERMUM

Indian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2005
Scedosporium apiospermum, the asexual state of Pseudallescheria boydii, is increasingly recognized as an opportunistic pathogen. We report a case of prosthetic valve endocarditis caused by this organism that developed in a patient following cardiac surgery.

The Study of Microbial Physiology Under Microoxic Conditions Is Critical but Neglected

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
Microbial physiology is mainly studied under aerobic or anaerobic/anoxic conditions, neglecting microbial behaviours in diverse microoxic conditions. The current article revisits the definition of microoxia in light of recent developments in oxygen‐sensing technology and emphasises the need to understand microbial physiology and growth behaviours of ...
