    Author : Khairun Nessa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Alveolar macrophage; Candida and Aspergillus species; C. neoformans; phagocytosis; oxidative metabolism; phagolysosomal pH; cytokines.;

    Abstract : Background: Serious fungal infections have increased notably in patients receiving modern treatment like organ transplantation, parenteral nutrition, long term steroid therapy and broad spectrum antibiotics. Patients with HIV infections and drug addicts also contract fungal infections. READ MORE

  5. 3. Trehalose metabolism and stress resistance in Aspergillus niger

    Author : Åsa Svanström; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Food spoilage by filamentous fungi, moulds, is a global issue of great significance. Mould growth can cause food losses due to deterioration, and adverse health effects due to toxin production. Conidia, asexual spores, are the main factors of dispersal and infection in most food-relevant moulds. READ MORE

  6. 4. Terpenoid Conidiation Factors in Penicillium cyclopium

    Author : Yanhong He; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; acetals; hydrolysis; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; total synthesis; analogues; synthesis; conidiogenone; conidiogenol; terpenoid; Penicillium cyclopium; conidiation inducing activity; Natural product; fungal metabolites;

    Abstract : Filamentous fungi produce asexual dispersive spores (conidia), when conditions are not suitable for apical extension growth. Conidiation (the process by which conidia produced) in genus Penicillium has attracted considerable interest because of its wide usage in different areas. READ MORE
