Genotyping, antifungal susceptibility testing, and biofilm formation of Trichosporon spp. isolated from urine samples in a University Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand [PDF]
The basidiomycetes yeast Trichosporon is widespread in the natural environment, but can cause disease, mainly in immunocompromised patients. However, there have been only few studies about this infection in Thailand.

Trichosporon spp.: an emerging fungal pathogen [PDF]
Trichosporon spp. has gained importance as the cases of immunosuppressed patients increase. The genus Trichosporon includes 6 species of clinical relevance that may cause supericial infections, such as white piedra and onychomycosis, or deep and invasive

Susceptibility patterns and molecular identification of Trichosporon species [PDF]
The physiological patterns, the sequence polymorphisms of the internal transcriber spacer (ITS), and intergenic spacer regions (IGS) of the rRNA genes and the antifungal susceptibility profile were evaluated for their ability to identify Trichosporon spp.

The mPEG-PCL Copolymer for Selective Fermentation of Staphylococcus lugdunensis Against Candida parapsilosis in the Human Microbiome. [PDF]
Many human skin diseases, such as seborrheic dermatitis, potentially occur due to the over-growth of fungi. It remains a challenge to develop fungicides with a lower risk of generating resistant fungi and non-specifically killing commensal microbes.

Accurate Differentiation of Trichosporon Asahii and Trichosporon Asteroides from other Human Pathogenic Yeasts and Moulds by using Highly Specific Monoclonal Antibodies [PDF]
Members of the genus Trichosporon are emerging opportunistic pathogens of humans, causing the invasive fungal disease trichosporonosis in immunocompromised patients, and summer-type hypersensitivity pneumonitis (SHP) in immunocompetent individuals ...

Observation of Viruses, Bacteria, and Fungi in Clinical Skin Samples under Transmission Electron Microscopy [PDF]
The highlight of this chapter is the description of the clinical manifestation and its pathogen and the host tissue damage observed under the transmission electron microscopy, which helps the clinician understand the pathogen’s ultrastructure, the change

Microbiota fúngica patógena pédica y su control mediante cuero funcionalizado con nanopartículas de óxido de zinc [PDF]
Las infecciones fúngicas que afectan a los pies en su mayoría no responden al tratamiento con antimicóticos, empleándose nuevas tecnologías como las nanopartículas de óxido de zinc (NPs-ZnO), las que han mostrado actividad antimicrobiana, y pueden ...

Effects of a Novel Probiotic Combination on Pathogenic Bacterial-Fungal Polymicrobial Biofilms
Dysbiosis of the gut microbiome has been implicated in inflammatory bowel diseases. We have shown that levels of Candida tropicalis, along with those of Escherichia coli and Serratia marcescens, are significantly elevated in Crohn’s disease (CD) patients.
