  • Better understand the drivers, mechanisms, and public health burden of antimicrobial-resistant Candida infections to identify the best prevention methods. (cdc.gov)
  • This difference of data can be explained by the geographical location of patients where Candida species can be found in amounts depending on the geographical area. (lupinepublishers.com)
  • The aim of this study is thus to compare the gut bacterial and fungal microbiota (bacteriobiota and mycobiota) composition between patients colonized with ESBL-producing E. coli and K. pneumoniae and to compare gut microbiota composition between ESBL-E faecal carriers and non-carriers according to the bacterial species carrying the ESBL enzyme.

  • RÉSUMÉ La présente étude, réalisée entre octobre 2003 et mars 2007, a recherché les évolutions de la sensibilité aux antifongiques des souches de Candida isolées chez 410 patients immunodéprimés dans la ville de Chiraz (République islamique d'Iran). (who.int)
  • Des analyses régulières de la résistance aux antifongiques dans les centres médicaux sont fortement recommandées, car les résultats permettront une prise en charge plus efficace de la candidose systémique chez les patients immunodéprimés. (who.int)

  • C. tropicalis is easily identified using phenotypic and molecular methods. (wikipedia.org)
  • Increasingly, molecular genetic methods such as DNA sequencing are used as primary tools for the accurate determination of species identifications in this group. (wikipedia.org)
  • Methods: Ninety-one colonies of Candida were isolated and presumptively identified in CHROMagar Candida, submitted to microculture, API 20C AUX and RAPD techniques. (bvsalud.org)
  • Nystatin acts by binding to sterols in the cell membrane of susceptible species resulting in a change in membrane permeability and the subsequent leakage of intracellular components. (nih.gov)
  • C. tropicalis is a vegetative cell with the shape from round to oval ranging from approximately 2 - 10 micrometers. (wikipedia.org)
  • Despite limitations, the data obtained in the present study demonstrated the high rate of C. Tropicalis in dental caries in deciduous teeth, however, has not been determined which factor is involved in the pathogenesis of dental caries produced by C. tropicalis. (lupinepublishers.com)
