Trichosporon asahii secretes a 30-kDa aspartic peptidase

Microbiological Research, 2017
Trichosporon asahii is a fungal opportunistic pathogen that causes superficial and deep-seated infections presenting high mortality. Very little is known about the virulence attributes produced by this fungus. Herein, aspartic peptidase production was identified in Brazilian clinical isolates of T. asahii by different methodologies.

Efficacy of Ethanol against Trichosporon asahii Biofilm in vitro [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2015
Trichosporon asahii (T. asahii) can cause invasive infections, particularly catheter-related bloodstream infections (CR-BSIs). T. asahii biofilm, which is resistant to the most common clinical antifungal agents, may play an important role in these life-threatening infections.

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

VIEW, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
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.

Structural and functional properties of the Trichosporon asahii glucuronoxylomannan

Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2009
The virulence attributes of Trichosporon asahii are virtually unknown, despite its growing relevance as causative agent of superficial and invasive diseases in humans. Glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) is a well described virulence factor of pathogenic species in the Cryptococcus genus.

Utility of BioFire FilmArray Pneumonia Panel Plus in a High‐Risk Cohort: Children Post Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 72, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary complications due to infection contribute significantly to post‐haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) morbidity and mortality. Standard microbiological investigations, when performed on bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, can take days to weeks to confirm a diagnosis.

Risk Factors,Diagnosis and Outcome of Proven and Probable Invasive Trichosporonosis in a Tertiary Care Hospital: A Cross-sectional Analytical Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Introduction: Trichosporon species are basidiomycetous yeast like fungus that is ubiquitous in the environment. They form part of the normal flora in humans. In recent years, they have been causing invasive infections, especially in the immunocompromised
