[ 1 ] - In-vitro Activity of 10 Antifungal Agents against 320 Dermatophyte Strains Using Microdilution Method in Tehran
Dermatophyte fungi are the etiologic agents of skin infections commonly referred to as ringworm. These infections are not dangerous but as a chronic cutaneous infections they may be difficult to treat and can also cause physical discomfort for patients. They are considered important as a public health problem as well. No information is available regarding the efficacy of antifungal agents again...
[ 2 ] - Identification and antifungal susceptibility pattern of Candida species isolated from patients with nosocomial candiduria
Introduction: Nosocomial candiduria could be due to cystitis, pyelonephritis, or fungusball in the urinary tract system. Several reports have shown candidemia and upper urinarytract involvement as the complications of candiduria. The aim of this study was to assessnosocomial candiduria; identify Candida isolates and determine their drug susceptibilitypattern. Materials and Methods: Urine sample...
[ 3 ] - In vitro antifungal activity of Zataria multiflora essential oil, fluconazole and ciclopirox olamine against nonalbicans Candida species isolated from recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis
The aim of the present study was to investigate the antifungal activity of Zatariamultiflora essential oil, fluconazole and ciclopirox olamine against 44 non-albicansCandida isolates from patients with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis. A set of C.glabrata (29 strains), C. krusei (3 stains) and C. patapsilosis (2 strains) were studiedusing Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) bro...

[ 5 ] - The antagonistic effects of Candida parapsilosis on the growth of Fusarium species and fumonisin production
Background and Purpose: Fusarium species are avid producers of secondary toxic and carcinogenic metabolites such as fumonisin. Contamination of food and feed products with fumonisin can be hazardous to the health of humans and animals and may lead to agricultural loss. Accordingly, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of Candida parapsilosis on the growth and fumonisin production ...
[ 6 ] - Effects of thiamine on growth, aflatoxin production, and aflr gene expression in A. parasiticus
Background and Purpose: Mycotoxins are secondary fungal metabolites with a very high diversity that are produced by some species of Aspergillus which frequently leads to contaminate food and agricultural products. Recently, elimination of aflatoxin contamination in food and feed has been considered by scientists worldwide. Although, the antibacterial and antifungal effects of vitamins as natura...
[ 7 ] - شناسایی گونه‌های کاندیدا با روش‌های قارچ‌شناسی و مولکولی در زنان باردار مبتلا به کاندیدیازیس واژینال
Background: Vaginal candidiasis is common in during pregnancy. It may lead to complications like abortions, premature birth, low birth weight, chorioamnionitis and fungal systemic neonatal infection. The aim of present study was identification of Candida species by mycological and molecular methods in pregnant women with vaginal candidiasis. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on...
[ 8 ] - بررسی و تشخیص کراتیت قارچی در بیماران با ضایعات قرنیه چشم
Background: Keratomycosis is a fungal infection of the cornea which could be sight-threatening and even causes eye loss. Considering the high humidity and the dominance of agriculture as important predisposing factors of keratomycosis in north of Iran, this study was carried out for diagnosis of fungal keratitis in patients with corneal lesions in Rasht, Gilan province, Iran. Methods: This de...
[ 9 ] - کلونیزاسیون کاندیدایی در نوزادان بخش مراقبت‌های ویژه و شناسایی گونه‌ها با روش‌های قارچ‌شناسی و مولکولی
Background: Over the last two decades invasive candidiasis has become an increasing problem in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Colonization of skin and mucous membranes with Candida spp. is important factor in the pathogenesis of neonatal infection and several colonized sites are major risk factors evoking higher frequencies of progression to invasive candidiasis. The aim of this study w...
[ 10 ] - Inhibitory Effect of Vitamin C on Aspergillus parasiticus Growth and Aflatoxin Gene Expression
Objective: Aflatoxin is known as one of the most important mycotoxins that threatens of human life. The toxin is produced by Aspergillus species which are common cause of contamination of agricultural products. For this reason, the use of organic compounds has always been considered in order to inhibit the growth of fungi and production of toxin. The aim of this study was to investigate the eff...
