Multiple species of Trichosporon produce biofilms highly resistant to triazoles and amphotericin B.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Invasive infections caused by Trichosporon spp. have increased considerably in recent years, especially in neutropenic and critically ill patients using catheters and antibiotics. The genus presents limited sensitivity to different antifungal agents, but

Antimicrobial Activity of Indigofera suffruticosa

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 261-265, 2006., 2006
Various organic and aqueous extracts of leaves of Indigofera suffruticosa Mill (Fabaceae) obtained by infusion and maceration were screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. The extracts were tested against 5 different species of human pathogenic bacteria and 17 fungal strains by the agar‐solid diffusion method.

A rare case of Trichosporon inkin bloodstream infection in an immunocompetent patient: Diagnostic challenges and antigenic cross-reactivity

Decoding Infection and Transmission
Trichosporon inkin is a rare opportunistic pathogen typically associated with superficial infections but can also cause invasive infections, particularly in immunocompromised hosts. Here, we report a rare case of T.

Vulvovaginal Trichosporonosis

Infectious Diseases in Obstetrics and Gynecology, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 131-133, 2003., 2003
Objective: Isolation of Trichosporon species from vaginal secretions is a rare event, and no data are available on its pathogenic role. A case series is presented to determine the pathogenic role of Trichosporon species in vulvovaginal infections. Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients seen in the W.S.U.

White piedra and pediculosis capitis in the same patient Piedra branca e pediculose capitis no mesmo paciente

Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2012
White piedra is a superficial mycosis caused by the genus Trichosporon. It is characterized by nodules on the hair shaft. Pediculosis capitis is caused by Pediculus humanus var. capitis of the suborder Anoplura.

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.

Usefulness of 18F‐FDG PET‐CT for the management of invasive fungal infections: A retrospective cohort from a tertiary university hospital

Mycoses, Volume 67, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Background 18F‐FDG PET‐CT is a potentially useful technique to help manage invasive fungal infection (IFI), but information on this topic is scarce. Objectives To describe our experience using 18F‐FDG PET‐CT for IFI management. Patients/Methods Retrospective cohort of IFI episodes in a university hospital from 2018 to 2023 with a18F‐FDG PET‐CT

Boric Acid for the Treatment of Vaginitis: New Possibilities Using an Old Anti‐Infective Agent: A Systematic Review

Dermatologic Therapy, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Introduction. Increasing microbial resistance to conventional pharmaceuticals calls for nonpharmaceutical treatments of vaginitis. This systematic review summarizes the efficacy of the antiseptic agent boric acid (BA) as a treatment option for microbial vaginitis in comparison to conventional therapies and proposes clinical recommendations.

Trichosporon inkin biofilms produce extracellular proteases and exhibit resistance to antifungals

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2015
The aim of this study was to determine experimental conditions for in vitro biofilm formation of clinical isolates of Trichosporon inkin, an important opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised patients. Biofilms were formed in microtitre plates in three different media (RPMI, Sabouraud and CLED), with inocula of 104, 105 or 106 cells ml- 1, at pH 5.5
