Candida haemulonii complex: species identification and antifungal susceptibility profiles of clinical isolates from Brazil.
OBJECTIVES The emerging fungal pathogens comprising the Candida haemulonii complex (Candida haemulonii, Candida haemulonii var. vulnera and Candida duobushaemulonii) are notable for their antifungal resistance. Twelve isolates with phenotypic similarity to C. haemulonii were recovered from patients in Brazilian hospitals. Here we aimed to identify these isolates by a molecular approach, using t...
متن کاملCandidiasis in Pediatrics; Identification and In vitro Antifungal Susceptibility of the Clinical Isolates
Background Candida species are normal microflora of oral cavity, vagina, and gastrointestinal tract. They are the third most prevalent cause of pediatric health care–associated bloodstream fungal infection. This study aimed to provide an epidemiological feature of candidiasis and also presents an antifungal susceptibility profile of clinical Candida iso...
متن کاملIn vitro antifungal susceptibility of clinical and environmental isolates of Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus in Brazil.
The in vitro susceptibility of 105 clinical and environmental strains of Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus to antifungal drugs, such as amphotericin B, azoles, and echinocandins was evaluated by the broth microdilution method proposed by the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST). Following the EUCAST-proposed breakpoints, 20% and 25% of the clinical and ...
متن کاملEfficacy of posaconazole against three clinical Aspergillus fumigatus isolates with mutations in the cyp51A gene.
The in vivo efficacy of posaconazole against 4 clinical Aspergillus fumigatus isolates with posaconazole MICs ranging from 0.03 to 16 mg/liter, as determined by CLSI method M38A, was assessed in a nonneutropenic murine model of disseminated aspergillosis. The underlying resistance mechanisms of the isolates included substitutions in the cyp51A gene at codon 220 (M220I), codon 54 (G54W), and cod...
متن کاملisolation, molecular identification, and antifungal susceptibility profiles of vaginal isolates of candida species
background and objectives: vulvovaginal candidiasis is a common fungal infection among women during reproductive ages. although, candida albicans is accounted as the main etiologic agent of vaginitis, non- albicans species have arisen during last years. resistant to antifungal drugs especially, fluconazole has been more reported by researchers from around the world. the aims of this study were ...
