Tablet sensitivity testing on pathogenic fungi.
A diffusion method for determining the sensitivity of pathogenic fungi to therapeutic agents is described using tablets containing the following antibiotics: amphotericin B, clotrimazole, econazole, fluorocytosine, and miconazole. The composition of the media used, standardisation of inocula, incubation time, and temperature are detailed.
متن کاملTablet sensitivity testing of pathogenic fungi
Fungus infections in man range from those involving only the most superficial areas of the body, through those in which subcutaneous tissue is attacked, to those deep and systemic infections that often involve most of the major organs of the body. The last decade has seen a marked increase in systemic mycoses, an increase that has been matched by the recent introduction of new systemic antifung...
متن کاملFever from pathogenic fungi.
Most studies of fever have dealt with the pyrogenic activity of the bacterial lipopolysaccharides of gram-negative bacteria (1). The pyrogenic properties of pathogenic gram-positive bacteria, on the other hand, have been the stubject of only a few reports. It is of interest, however, that intravenous injection of living staphylococci and corynebacteria were found to produce higher fever in rabb...
متن کاملZinc Exploitation by Pathogenic Fungi
The ability of pathogenic microorganisms to assimilate nutrients from their host environment is one of the most fundamental aspects of infection. To counteract this, hosts attempt to withhold essential micro-nutrients from potentially harmful microbes to limit, or even prevent, their growth. This process is called nutritional immunity. For example, vertebrates, such as humans, express several i...
متن کاملInsertional mutagenesis of pathogenic fungi.
Screening insertional mutants for loss of virulence is an effective method for investigating the molecular genetic basis of bacterial pathogenesis, but has only recently been applied to fungal pathogens. For many pathogenic fungi transformation with heterologous plasmid DNA results in complex integration events. This problem can now be circumvented for some species using restriction enzyme medi...
