Abstracts: Despite the many services that natural rubber provides to humanity, its production generates significant quantities of polluted effluents which have a negative impact on health and environment. In order reduce this pollution allow water be reused after treatment, synthetic effluent treatment trial was carried out in submerged membrane bioreactor presence two strains yeast (Yarrowia l...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE By using advanced detection/identification methods, the list of emerging uncommon opportunistic yeast infections is rapidly expanding worldwide. Our aim in the present study was sequence-based species delineation of previously unidentified yeasts obtained from a clinically yeast collection. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of twenty three out of the 855 (5.7%) yeast isolat...

The diversity of yeasts collected from different sites in Antarctica (Admiralty Bay, King George Island and Port Foster Bay and Deception Island) and their ability to produce extracellular enzymes and mycosporines were studied. Samples were collected during the austral summer season, between November 2006 and January 2007, from the rhizosphere of Deschampsia antarctica, ornithogenic (penguin gu...

Eleven quality control isolates (Candida albicans ATCC 64548, C. tropicalis ATCC 200956, C. glabrata ATCC 90030, C. lusitaniae ATCC 200951, C. parapsilosis ATCC 22019, C. krusei ATCC 6258, C. dubliniensis ATCC 6330, Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 9763, Cryptococcus neoformans ATCC 90012, C. gattii FIOCRUZ-CPF 60, and Trichosporon mucoides ATCC 204094) and 32 bloodstream isolates, including C. al...

Wine quality is determined by the particular yeast strains prevailing at various stages of fermentation. Therefore, ability to make an easy, fast, and unambiguous discrimination yeasts strain level great importance. Here, tandem repeat-tRNA (TRtRNA) method with 5GAC or ISSR-MB primer sets random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis (GTG)3, R5, RF2 oligonucleotides were tested on non-Saccha...

Three steroids and one nordammarane triterpenoid were isolated for the first time from the endophytic fungus Pichia guilliermondii Ppf9 derived from the medicinal plant Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis. By means of physicochemical and spectrometric analysis, they were identified as ergosta-5,7,22-trienol (1), 5α,8α-epidioxyergosta-6,22-dien-3β-ol (2), ergosta-7,22-dien-3β,5α,6β-triol (3), and ...
