Fluorescent staining of Histoplasma capsulatum.
In an earlier paper from this laboratory (Gordon, 1958) it was demonstrated that fluorescein-labeled specific antiserum employed as a cellular stain will differentiate Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis from other yeasts and yeastlike organisms, including the remaining members of the genus Candida. The present report describes the preparation and use of a similar reagent for detection and ...
متن کاملRespiration in the yeast and mycelial phases of Histoplasma capsulatum.
Respiration in the yeast and mycelial phases of Histoplasma capsulatum proceeds via a cytochrome system and an alternate oxidase, both present constitutively. The mycelial cytochrome system is distinguished by an additional partial shunt around the antimycin-sensitive site.
متن کاملGrowth of Histoplasma capsulatum. VI. Maintenance of the mycelial phase.
A medium is described for the maintenance of the mycelial phases of Histoplasma capsulatum in their "original" condition of sporulation. A yeast phase medium is reemphasized, not only for conversion and support of the yeast phase, but as an indirect method of maintaining the mycelial characteristics as originally observed.
متن کامل“Saprophytic Form” of Histoplasma capsulatum in vivo *
It is the purpose of this paper to report a unique observation concerning Histoplasma capsulatum. This diphasic fungus, according to previous reports, produces only yeast-like forms in the body of man and other animals. In culture, either the mycelial stage or the yeast-like form is obtained according to the experimental conditions. For the first time, so far as the author is aware, the mycelia...
متن کاملImmunological studies on Histoplasma capsulatum.
Alveolar macrophages freshly harvested from normal and immunized rabbits were parasitized with yeast cells and protoplasts of Histoplasma capsulatum. Macrophages obtained from either normal or sensitized rabbits failed to phagocytize protoplasts, whereas, the yeast cells were actively ingested. There was no detectable intracellular killing by macrophages. A serological similarity was found betw...
