Implementation of MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry to Identify Fungi From the Indoor Environment as an Added Value to the Classical Morphology-Based Identification Tool

molds is generally performed by microscopy. This method has, however, some limitations as it requires mycologists with high expertise while identification is often limited to the genus level. Therefore, ...

Superficial mycoses in Belgium: Burden, costs and antifungal drugs consumption

mycoses in Belgium and to assess trends in associated antifungal consumption. Methods The burden of dermatophytoses (including onychomycosis), as well as skin and genital candidiasis, was estimated using ...

Black aspergilli: A remaining challenge in fungal taxonomy?

clinical lab, isolates of A. sect. Nigri are often identified as A. niger. However, in the clinical isolates of our data set, A. tubingensis (n = 35) and A. welwitschiae (n = 34) are more common than A. ...

Subcutaneous Granulomatous Inflammation due to Basidiobolomycosis: Case Reports of 3 Patients in Buruli Ulcer Endemic Areas in Benin.

other diseases, such as soft tissue tumors, lymphoma, or Buruli ulcer in the preulcerative stage. Microbiological confirmation by PCR for and culture yield the most specific diagnosis, yet they are not ...

Decision criteria for MALDI-TOF MS-based identification of filamentous fungi using commercial and in-house reference databases

established. Furthermore, it remains unknown how far increasing the number of spots to compare results might improve identification performance. In this study, we used in-house and Bruker reference databases as ...

Investigation of inflammatory and allergic responses to common mold species: Results from in vitro experiments, from a mouse model of asthma, and from a group of asthmatic patients.

P. chrysogenum, P. brevicompactum, C. sphaerospermum, and C. cladosporïoides were the “major sensitizer” (defined as the strongest response against a single mold species) for almost 30% of the asthmatics. These ...
