Aspergillus species identification in the clinical setting
Multiple recent studies have demonstrated the limited utility of morphological methods used singly for species identification of clinically relevant aspergilli. It is being increasingly recognised that comparative sequence based methods used in conjunction with traditional phenotype based methods can offer better resolution of species within this genus. Recognising the growing role of molecular...
متن کاملFractionation and identification of the allergic proteins in Aspergillus species
Background and Purpose: Allergy is an undesired immune response to non-pathogenic agents. However, some opportunistic microorganisms such as fungi can also cause allergy. Among those fungi, hyphae form of Aspergillus strains including A. fumigatus, A. flavus, and A. niger could be mentioned. In this study, we aimed to separate allergic proteins from Aspergillus strains and determine their ident...
متن کاملMolecular identification of aflatoxigenic Aspergillus species in feedstuff samples
Background and Purpose: Aflatoxins are naturally produced by some species of Aspergillus, such as A. flavus and A. parasiticus. Aflatoxins reportedly have carcinogenic effects on human, poultry, and livestock, and therefore could be linked to severe human illnesses. Aflatoxin biosynthesis pathway involves different clustered genes, including structural, regular, and unassigned genes. The presen...
متن کاملPectic zymogram variation and morphological identification of Aspergillus species
One hundred and three Aspergillus isolates belonging to 12 species including: A. alliaceus, A. candidus, A. carneus, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, A. niger var. niger, A. niger var. awamori, A. niveus, A. ochraceous, A. sydowii, A. terreus, A. ustus,and A. versicolor based on morphological characters were obtained from various sources.
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Candida Species in Clinical Isolates
Candida exists as a normal flora on skin and mucosa. The prevalence of Candida-induced infections specially mucosal and vaginal infections have been raised in the world in last decade due to increase in predisposing factors. C.albicans is the major etiological agent of candidiasis, but infections due to other species have been increasing. The aim of this study was to determine Candida species b...
