Clinical factors associated with a Candida albicans Germ Tube Antibody positive test in Intensive Care Unit patients
(BioMed Central, 2011-03)
Background: Poor outcomes of invasive candidiasis (IC) are associated with the difficulty in establishing the microbiological diagnosis at an early stage. New scores and laboratory tests have been developed in order to ...
Graphene Oxide–Silver Nanoparticle Nanohybrids: Synthesis, Characterization, and Antimicrobial Properties
(MDPÎ, 2020-02-21)
Drug resistance of pathogenic microorganisms has become a global public health problem, which has prompted the development of new materials with antimicrobial properties. In this context, antimicrobial nanohybrids are an ...

Candida albicans biofilms on different materials for manufacturing implant abutments and prostheses
(Medicina Oral S. L., 2020-01-01)
[EN] Background: Morphological, physical and chemical properties of both implants and prostheses can determine the
biofilm formation on their surface and increase the risk of biological complications. The aim of this study ...
Candida duobushaemulonii: An Old But Unreported Pathogen
(MDPI, 2020-12-17)
Candidiasis caused by species of the Candida haemulonii complex (Candida haemulonii and Candida duobushaemulonii) and closely related species, Candida auris and Candida pseudohaemulonii are increasing. These species often ...
Design and validation of a multiplex PCR protocol for microsatellite typing of Candida parapsilosis sensu stricto isolates
(Biomed Central, 2018-09-29)
Background: Analysis of polymorphic microsatellite markers (STR) is a helpful genotyping technique to differentiate Candida parapsilosis sensu stricto isolates. The aim of this study is to develop and perform an initial ...
Antifungal Activity of the Human Uterine Cervical Stem Cells Conditioned Medium (hUCESC-CM) Against Candida albicans and Other Medically Relevant Species of Candida
(Frontiers Media, 2018-11-21)
Candidiasis is a major cause of human morbidity and mortality. Human uterine cervical stem cells conditioned medium (hUCESC-CM) is obtained from stromal stem cells of the cervical transformation zone, which are in permanent ...
In vitro activities of natural products against oral Candida isolates from denture wearers
(BioMed Central, 2011-11-26)
Background: Candida-associated denture stomatitis is a frequent infectious disease. Treatment of this oral condition is difficult because failures and recurrences are common. The aim of this study was to test the in vitro ...
Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model System To Assess Candida glabrata, Candida nivariensis, and Candida bracarensis Virulence and Antifungal Efficacy
(American Society for Microbiology (ASM), 2020-09-21)
Although Candida albicans remains the major etiological agent of invasive
candidiasis, Candida glabrata and other emerging species of Candida are
increasingly isolated. This species is the second most prevalent cause of ...
Postantifungal Effect of Micafungin against the Species Complexes of Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis
(Public Library Science, 2015-07-13)
Micafungin is an effective antifungal agent useful for the therapy of invasive candidiasis. Candida albicans is the most common cause of invasive candidiasis; however, infections due to non-C. albicans species, such as ...
