Protoplasts Obtained from Candida tropicalis
A method for the preparation of protoplasts from Candida tropicalis cultivated on n-tetradecane is described. This essentially consists of replacing the mannitolsorbitol solution of the classical helicase technique by 1 M magnesium sulfate and lowering the pH to 4.1 during incubation in the presence of helicase. The protoplasts thus prepared behave like intact cells and are capable of consuming...
متن کاملEmergence of Candida tropicalis resistant to caspofungin.
Sir, Candida species is the fourth leading cause of nosocomial bloodstream infection in the USA. The incidence and mortality of invasive candidiasis (IC) remain high despite new antifungal agents. Although Candida albicans remains the most common isolated species causing IC, the incidence of IC caused by non-albicans species is increasing. Caspofungin, an echinocandin, is approved for treatment...
متن کاملSucrose-negative variants of Candida tropicalis.
Four cultures of a Candida sp. that lacked alpha-glucosidase activity were isolated from clinical specimens. Physiological, morphological, and serological characterizations of the yeasts and deoxyribonucleic acid reassociation studies supported their classification as a variant of C. tropicalis.
متن کاملSecreted aspartic proteinase family of Candida tropicalis.
Medically important yeasts of the genus Candida secrete aspartic proteinases (Saps), which are of particular interest as virulence factors. Like Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis secretes in vitro one dominant Sap (Sapt1p) in a medium containing bovine serum albumin (BSA) as the sole source of nitrogen. Using the gene SAPT1 as a probe and under low-stringency hybridization conditions, three ...
متن کاملCandida tropicalis endophthalmitis following penetrating keratoplasty.
A case of Candida tropicalis endophthalmitis following penetrating keratoplasty is presented. The donor was an alcoholic, who died of bronchopneumonia and pancreatitis. We presume the candida infection was transmitted by the donor because Candida tropicalis was cultured in life from the donor's throat swab and corresponding fungal elements were discovered post mortem in kidney sections of the d...
