Malassezia Furfur in Malaysia
An in-house prepared M. furfur antigen was used to carry out a seroprevalence study in an urban population in Malaysia by indirect immunofluorescence assay. Of the 800 serum samples from all ages screened, 738 samples were positive for M. furfur specific IgG, giving an overall seropositive rate of 92.3%. There was no significant difference in the seropositive rates among the different gender gr...
متن کاملNatural Oils Enhance IL-10 and IFN-γ Production by Human PBMCs Cultured with Malassezia furfur
Background: Malassezia furfur is alipophilic yeast that causes skin disease. Objective: To evaluate the level of IL-10, IFN-γ and IL-12P70 in co-incubation of M. furfur grown on different forms of natural oils with PBMCs of healthy individuals. Methods: PBMCs were obtained from blood samples of normal volunteers. M. furfur was cultured in different culture media containing almond oil, fish oil,...

متن کاملRapid Identification of Malassezia furfur from other Malassezia Species: A Major Causative Agent of Pityriasis Versicolor
The present study is designed to evaluate the application of a simple method for rapid identification of Malassezia furfur among other Malassezia spp. based on production of a brownish-red pigment and its diffusion into the medium containing L-tryptophan as a sigle source of nitrogen. 91 strains of Malassezia (20% M. furfur, 2% M. sympodialis, 5% M. obtosa and 73% M. globosa) isolated from ski...
متن کاملDifferent utilization of neutral lipids by Malassezia furfur and Malassezia sympodialis.
In recent years, the genus Malassezia has been expanded based on molecular data; in addition to M. furfur and M. pachydermatis, five new species (M. sympodialis, M. globosa, M. obtusa, M. restricta, M. slooffiae) have been described. Apart from their lipid dependence, little is known about the metabolism and nutritional requirements of these new species. Defined inocula of Malassezia reference ...
