Candida norvegensis: a fluconazole-resistant species

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
P SandvenJ Lassen

Abstract

Candida norvegensis has been an unusual cause of infections in humans. In Norway this species was isolated from eight patients from 1990 to 1996 and was of probable pathogenic significance in four of them. All isolates were resistant to fluconazole. The same was true for two C. norvegensis isolates from before 1940, and it is therefore assumed that the fluconazole resistance is inherent.

Candidiasis

Candidiasis is a common fungal infection caused by Candida and it can affect many parts for the body including mucosal membranes as well as the gastrointestinal, urinary, and respiratory tracts. Here is the latest research.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.

Antimicrobial Resistance (ASM)

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

CRISPR Screens in Drug Resistance

CRISPR-Cas system enables the editing of genes to create or correct mutations. This feed focuses on the application of CRISPR-Cas system in high-throughput genome-wide screens to identify genes that may confer drug resistance.
