چکیده

We report a case of necrotizing pneumonia due to Penicillium chrysogenum in a 57-year-old woman operated on for lung cancer. The residual right lower pulmonary lobe was infiltrated by Penicillium chrysogenum. The patient underwent a second pulmonary right lobectomy and was successfully treated with oral itraconazole. To our knowledge, this is the first case of pneumonia due to P. chrysogenum.

Intracellular Biosynthesis of Gold Nanoparticles by the Fungus Penicillium Chrysogenum

In this study, the biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles by Penicillium chrysogenum, isolated from Ahar copper mine, was investigated. The gold nanoparticles were synthesized by reducing the aqueous gold ions using the culture supernatant of the filamentous fungi. The UV–vis spectrum displayed a characteristic peak at 532 nm that is very specific for gold nanoparticles. The XRD spectrum confirmed ...

Invertase production by Penicillium chrysogenum and other fungi in submerged fermentation.

A study was made of Penicillium chrysogenum and some other fungi to determine the relative distribution of intra- and extracellular invertase produced by them in submerged fermentation. The proportion of each type of enzyme varied with the organism and the period of fermentation. More of the enzyme initially bound to the mycelium was released into the medium with the progress of fermentation. D...
