Knowledge and regulation on fungal contamination of sand and water: progress re...
Gangneux, Jean-Pierre; Brandão, João; Segal, Ester; Arikan-Akdagli, Sevtap; Barac, Aleksandra; Bertout, Sébastien; Bostanaru, Andra-CristinaFungal flora in coastal/inland beach sand and recreational water is a neglected field of study, despite its potential impact on human health. A joint International Society for Human and Animal Mycology/European Confederation for Medical Mycology (ISHAM/ECMM) working group was formed in 2019 with the task to set up a vast international initiative aimed at studying the fungal contamination of beaches and bathing ...

The role of occupational Aspergillus exposure in the development of diseases
Sabino, Raquel; Veríssimo, Cristina; Viegas, Carla; Viegas, Susana; Brandão, João; Alves-Correia, Magna; Borrego, Luís-Miguel; Clemons, Karl VAspergillus spp. have a high nutritional versatility and good growth on a large variety of construction materials. They also colonize soil or food, but decaying vegetation is their primary ecological niche. Therefore, exposure to fungi may occur at home, during hospitalization, during specific leisure activities, or at the workplace. The development of Aspergillus infections depends on the interplay between hos...
The human lung and Aspergillus: You are what you breathe in?
Richardson, Malcolm; Bowyer, Paul; Sabino, RaquelThe diversity of fungal species comprising the lung mycobiome is a reflection of exposure to environmental and endogenous filamentous fungi and yeasts. Most lung mycobiome studies have been culture-based. A few have utilized next generation sequencing (NGS). Despite the low number of published NGS studies, several themes emerge from the literature: (1) moulds and yeasts are present in the human respiratory trac...
