Trichosporon Species and Fusarium Species as a Cause of Empyema Thoracis in a Diabetic Patient. [PDF]

Cureus, 2020
Of late, fungal infections are increasingly being recognized in diabetic patients. Here we present a case of polymicrobial fungal empyema due to Trichosporon species and Fusarium species developed after community-acquired pneumonia in a diabetic patient.

Emerging pan-resistance in Trichosporon species: a case report. [PDF]

BMC Infect Dis, 2016
Trichosporon species are ubiquitously spread and known to be part of the normal human flora of the skin and gastrointestinal tract. Trichosporon spp. normally cause superficial infections. However, in the past decade Trichosporon spp. are emerging as opportunistic agents of invasive fungal infections, particularly in severely immunocompromised patients.

Comparative Utilization of Paraffins by a Trichosporon Species [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1970
Utilization of normal and isoparaffins, separately and in mixtures, by a Trichosporon sp. was investigated. From a mixture of normal paraffins and isoparaffins, the organism consumed straight-chain paraffins, leaving the branched paraffins relatively unchanged.

In Vitro Antifungal Susceptibilities of Trichosporon Species [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2002
ABSTRACT The in vitro activities of amphotericin B, itraconazole, fluconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, and ravuconazole against 39 isolates of Trichosporon spp. were determined by the NCCLS M27-A microdilution method. The azoles tested appeared to be more potent than amphotericin B.

Susceptibility Patterns and Molecular Identification of Trichosporon Species [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2005
ABSTRACT 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.

Serological Characterization of Trichosporon cutaneum and Related Species [PDF]

Microbiology and Immunology, 1996
AbstractRecent molecular biological, chemical, physiological and morphological studies indicate that Trichosporon cutaneum and related species should be reclassified. In this study, antigenic characteristics of the species were determined. The results of adsorption experiments revealed that there were at least three serological types: I, II and III ...

Onychomycosis by Trichosporon Inkin: A Rare Clinical Entity [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2018
Trichosporon species are basidiomycetous yeasts that are widely distributed in the nature and regularly found on normal skin. The cylinder-shaped arthroconidia forming yeast has undergone a major taxonomic reclassification with Trichosporon inkin ...

Emerging Nosocomial Trichosporon asahii in a Tertiary Hospital in Southern Saudi Arabia

King Khalid University Journal of Health Sciences, 2023
Background: Trichosporon species are pathogenic yeasts that colonize diverse human body sites and cause superficial in addition to invasive trichosporonosis, especially in immunosuppressed patients.

Characterization of Trichosporon species isolated from clinical specimens in Kuwait [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2005
Invasive trichosporonosis is an emerging infection of severely immunocompromised patients. It is principally caused by Trichosporon asahii, although some other species of the genus have also been implicated in the aetiology. In this work, 29 clinical isolates of Trichosporon species recovered from 29 different patients over a 6-year period were studied
