Catheter-related sepsis due to Rhodotorula glutinis.
We describe a central venous catheter-related (Port-A-Cath; Smiths Industries Medical Systems [SIMS] Deltec, Inc., St. Paul, Minn.) infection caused by Rhodotorula glutinis in a 51-year-old man with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. He was treated with fluconazole for 8 weeks and had the catheter removed. Two isolates of R. glutinis recovered from blood specimens (one obtained via peripheral veins and ...
متن کاملCatheter-related bloodstream infection.
Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CR-BSIs) are a common, frequently preventable complication of central venous catheterization. CR-BSIs can be prevented by strict attention to insertion and maintenance of central venous catheters and removing unneeded catheters as soon as possible. Antiseptic- or antibiotic-impregnated catheters are also an effective tool to prevent infections. The diagn...
متن کاملImprovement of carotenoid-synthesizing yeast Rhodotorula rubra by chemical mutagenesis.
A mutant Rhodotorula rubra with enhanced carotenoid-synthesizing activity for synthesizing total carotenoids and beta-carotene was obtained by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis. When co-cultivated with yogurt starter bacteria (Lactobacillus bulgaricus + Streptococcus thermophilus) in whey ultrafiltrate it produced 15.7 mg total carotenoids l(-1) culture fluid or 946 microg total ...
متن کاملTorularhodin Biosynthesis and Extraction by Yeast Cells of Rhodotorula Rubra
The paper presents the research work done to study the discontinuous bioprocess for the intracellular carotenoidic pigment torularhodin formation with the yeast Rhodotorula rubra ICCF 209. The growth and carotenoid biosynthesis of the yeast Rhodotorula rubra was studied by cultivation in 3.7 L Bioengineering AG lab bioreactor with mechanical stirring at an air flow rate of 200 L/h and agitation...
متن کاملDiagnosing Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection
To the Editor—I want to congratulate Bouza et al. [1] for their effort to solve part of the puzzle regarding the diagnosis of catheter-related bloodstream infection without catheter removal in critically ill patients [1]. I would like to make 2 comments to place the results in a broader perspective. The authors excluded arterial and Swan-Ganz catheters from the analysis, notwithstanding the fac...
