We aimed at reporting the first case of rapidly progressive acute postoperative endophthalmitis after phacoemulsification cataract surgery in an immunocompetent patient caused by Rothia mucilaginosa. An immunocompetent patient manifested endophthalmitis signs 48 hours after an uncomplicated cataract surgery by phacoemulsification. A bacteria of the family Micrococcaceae was cultured in the vitr...

FPAses have been isolated and studied from psychrotolerant yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa BPT1, Penicillium canescens BPF4 Pseudogymnoascus roseus BPF6. BPT1 showed 100% activity at 4ºC, 30ºC 50ºC, while that BPF6 maximal 60ºC 40ºC respectively. The enzyme three peak activities, single activity. While FPAse low temperature i.e. rendering it very useful enzyme. both the other fungi also more tha...

The discovery of biopigments has received considerable attention from the industrial sector, mainly for potential applications as novel molecules with biological activity, in cosmetics or if aquaculture food supplements. main objective this study was to increase production carotenoid pigments a naturally pigmented yeast by subjecting various cellular stresses using design experiments. fungal st...

We describe a central venous catheter-related (Port-A-Cath; Smiths Industries Medical Systems [SIMS] Deltec, Inc., St. Paul, Minn.) infection caused by Rhodotorula glutinis in a 51-year-old man with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. He was treated with fluconazole for 8 weeks and had the catheter removed. Two isolates of R. glutinis recovered from blood specimens (one obtained via peripheral veins and ...
