Candida species biofilm and Candida albicans ALS3 polymorphisms in clinical iso...
Bruder-Nascimento,Ariane; Camargo,Carlos Henrique; Mondelli,Alessandro Lia; Sugizaki,Maria Fátima; Sadatsune,Terue; Bagagli,EduardoOver the last decades, there have been important changes in the epidemiology of Candida infections. In recent years, Candida species have emerged as important causes of invasive infections mainly among immunocompromised patients. This study analyzed Candida spp. isolates and compared the frequency and biofilm production of different species among the different sources of isolation: blood, urine, vulvovaginal se...
Utilidade da cultura da ponta de cateter no diagnóstico de infecção neonatal
Marconi,Camila; Cunha,Maria de Lourdes Ribeiro de Souza da; Lyra,João C.; Bentlin,Maria R.; Batalha,Jackson E. N.; Sugizaki,Maria FátimaOBJETIVO: Determinar o número de unidades formadoras de colônias que melhor correlaciona com a infecção relacionada a cateter em recém-nascidos. MÉTODOS: Este foi um estudo prospectivo de culturas semiquantitativas de pontas de cateteres de recém-nascidos da unidade neonatal da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu. Os microrganismos isolados de cateteres e hemoculturas periféricas foram identificados e submetidos ...
Comparison between qualitative and semiquantitative catheter-tip cultures: labo...
Marconi,Camila; Cunha,Maria de Lourdes RS; Lyra,João C; Bentlin,Maria R; Batalha,Jackson EN; Sugizaki,Maria Fátima; Rugolo,Lígia MSSThis prospective study evaluated semiquantitative and qualitative catheter-culture methods for diagnosis of catheter-related infection (CRI) in newborns. Catheter tips from newborns admitted to the Neonatal Unit of the University Hospital of the Botucatu Medical School, UNESP were included in the study.

Experimental infections with Paracoccidioides brasiliensis obtained from armadi...
Nishikaku,Angela Satie; Peraçoli,Maria Terezinha S.; Bagagli,Eduardo; Sugizaki,Maria Fátima; Sartori,AlexandrinaParacoccidioides brasiliensis causes paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) that is one of the most prevalent systemic human mycoses in Latin America. Armadillos show a high incidence of PCM infection and could, therefore, be a natural reservoir for this fungus. In this study were compared the virulence profiles of isolates obtained from nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) (PbT1 and PbT4) and isolates from PCM ...
