Different 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 ...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization of Malassezia Species Isolated from Dog with and Without Otitis and Seborrhoeic Dermatitis
The lipophilic yeasts of the genus Malassezia are opportunistic microorganisms of the skin microflora, but they can be agents of various dermatomycoses. In this study, random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR technique was applied to the genetic typing of Malassezia species isolated from dog with otitis and seborrhoeic dermatitis and healthy dog. The analysis of electrophoretic profil...
متن کاملMalassezia 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 کاملIsolation of Malassezia furfur from a cat.
During a survey of the occurrence of Malassezia species in the external ear canals of cats without otitis externa, Malassezia furfur was isolated. This is the first report of the isolation of M. furfur from cats.
متن کاملMolecular analysis of Malassezia sympodialis-related strains from domestic animals.
Recently, several new lipid-dependent species belonging to the genus Malassezia have been described. Some of them, such as Malassezia dermatis, Malassezia nana, and the tentatively named "Malassezia equi," have similar phenotypes and are genetically close to Malassezia sympodialis Simmons et Gueho 1990. DNA characterization by D1/D2 26S rRNA gene and internal transcribed spacer (ITS)-5.8S rRNA ...
