Use of Recombinant Antigens for the Diagnosis of Invasive Candidiasis
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
Invasive candidiasis is a frequent and often fatal complication in immunocompromised and critically ill patients. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis remains difficult due to the lack of specific clinical ...
Biomarkers for the diagnosis of invasive candidiasis in immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients
(Elsevier, 2021-07-24)
Blood culture methods show low sensitivity, so reliable non-culture diagnostic tests are needed to help clinicians with the introduction, de-escalation, and discontinuation of antifungal therapy in patients with suspected ...
Molecular Identification of Fungal Species through Multiplex-qPCR to Determine Candidal Vulvovaginitis and Antifungal Susceptibility
(MDPI, 2023-11-27)
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a prevalent condition affecting women worldwide. This study aimed to develop a rapid qPCR assay for the accurate identification of VVC etiological agents and reduced azole susceptibility. ...
Candida albicans cDNA library screening reveals novel potential diagnostic targets for invasive candidiasis
(Elsevier, 2024-07)
The detection of patterns associated with the invasive form of Candida albicans, such as Candida albicans germ tube antibodies (CAGTA), is a useful complement to blood culture for Invasive Candidiasis (IC) diagnosis. As ...
