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

Expressed sequence tag analysis of the human pathogen Paracoccidioides brasiliensis yeast phase: Identification of putative homologues of Candida albicans virulence and pathogenicity genes [PDF]
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, a thermodimorphic fungus, is the causative agent of the prevalent systemic mycosis in Latin America, paracoccidioidomycosis. We present here a survey of expressed genes in the yeast pathogenic phase of P. brasiliensis.

Environmental isolation of Sporothrix spp. in veterinary settings
Abstract Background This study investigated environmental contamination by Sporothrix spp. in a veterinary facility specialised in treating cats with sporotrichosis. Methods Twelve samples were collected from frequently touched surfaces and cages of three cats at different treatment stages. Sampling sites included a procedure table, door handle, faucet,

Zoonotic Sporotrichosis in Paraguay: A Public Health Alert
ABSTRACT Background Cat‐transmitted sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis is increasingly reported in the last three decades within Brazil. Recently, other South American countries like Argentina and Chile also reported cases, while the number of reported cases in Paraguay, a Brazilian neighbour, remains quite limited with 10 feline and ...
