Trichosporon spp.: an emerging fungal pathogen [PDF]

, 2014
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

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.

Susceptibility patterns and molecular identification of Trichosporon species [PDF]

, 2005
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]

, 2016
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.

Clinical case of endocarditis due to Trichosporon inkin and antifungal susceptibility profile of the organism. [PDF]

J Clin Microbiol, 2004
ABSTRACTA fatal case ofTrichosporon inkinprosthetic endocarditis is reported. The isolation sites and susceptibility profiles of 10 other isolates are also reviewed. Four strains were recovered from cutaneous or subcutaneous samples, four were recovered from urine, one was recovered from peritoneal liquid, and one was recovered from bone.

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.

Identification of cultured isolates of clinically important yeast species using fluorescent fragment length analysis of the amplified internally transcribed rRNA spacer 2 region

BMC Microbiology, 2002
Background The number of patients with yeast infection has increased during the last years. Also the variety of species of clinical importance has increased. Correct species identification is often important for efficient therapy, but is currently mostly
