Twelve Aspergillus sp. strains producing glucose dehydrogenase were identified using ITS region sequencing. Based on the sequences obtained, the genomic relationship of the analyzed strains was investigated. Moreover, partial gdh gene sequences were determined and aligned. The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) method was applied for genomic fingerprinting of twelve Aspergillus isola...

The new species Aspergilluskarnatakaensis sp. nov. is described and illustrated. All three isolates of this species were isolated from Indian soil; two from soil under a coconut palm in a coffee plantation in Karnataka, and one from soil in the Machrar river bed in Bansa district. This species is closely related to, but clearly distinct, from A. aeneus based on β-tubulin or calmodulin sequence ...

On utilisera principalement cette fonction génératrice comme une fonction définie sur [0, 1]. gX est C∞ sur ]− 1, 1[ on a gX(0) = P(X = 0), gX(1) = 1,P(X = n) = g X (0)/n!. Proposition 1. Soient X et Y de variables aléatoires indépendantes, de fonctions génératrices respectives gX et gY . Alors la fonction génératrice de X + Y est gX+Y = gXgY . Démonstration. Pour tout s, gX+Y (s) = E[sX+Y ] = ...

Elastase from Aspergillus sp. is an important factor for aspergillosis. AFUEI is an inhibitor of the elastase derived from Aspergillus fumigatus. AFUEI is a member of the I78 inhibitor family and has a high inhibitory activity against elastases of Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus, human neutrophil elastase and bovine chymotrypsin, but does not inhibit bovine trypsin. Here we report ...

The aim of this study was to identify the endophytic fungi from medicinal plant Ricinus communis and to investigate their potential antibacterial activity. 10 fungal species of endophytic fungi were successfully isolated from Ricinus communis including Aspergillus fumigates, Aspergillus japonicas, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium semitectum, Curvularia pallescens, Phoma hedericola, Alternaria tenuis...

prenylated indole alkaloids that are secondary metabolites produced by Penicillium sp. and Aspergillus sp. fungi. This review will cover both the biosynthesis as well as the chemical synthesis of this family of natural products. Particular emphasis will be placed on the provocative hypothesis that the core bicyclo[2.2.2]diazaoctan ring system, which is common to this entire family, is formed by...

A novel antifungal cyclic depsipeptide termed glomosporin, which has a fatty acyl side chain, was isolated from a barley solid culture of Glomospora sp. The strain was isolated from fallen pine leaves collected in Fukusima Prefecture, Japan and identified as Glomospora sp. BAUA 2825. Glomosporin was purified by butanol extraction followed by preparative HPLC. Glomosporin showed antimicrobial ac...

KOH: potassium hydroxide INTRODUCTION Aspergillus sp, Candida sp, and zygomycoses can disseminate rapidly in an immunocompromised host, causing significant morbidity and mortality. Serum testing, tissue biopsy, and culture are used to confirm a suspected diagnosis, but waiting for results may delay initiation of life-saving treatment. We report a case of disseminated aspergillosis presenting wi...

Objective:Mold contamination of cakes and the possibility of mold growth can pose a serious health problem. Bakery products include various ingredients, which regularly contain molds. These microorganisms on cakes can come from the air, contaminated packaging materials and other sources.Methods: In this study, a total of 500 fungal isolates representing 36 species, were identified from cake sam...
