Evaluation of fungal-specific fluorescent labeled echinocandin probes as diagnostic adjuncts

Medical Mycology

Abstract

The diagnosis of invasive fungal infections from radiographic imaging is non-specific and problematic. As a first step toward increasing specificity, we describe the development of a broad-spectrum fungal-specific targeting molecule, which when modified with a fluorescent label fully retains its targeting properties, and provides a basis for future imaging applications.

Candida albicans

Candida albicans is an opportunistic, fungal pathogen of humans that frequently causes superficial infections of oral and vaginal mucosal surfaces of debilitated and susceptible individuals. Discover the latest research on Candida albicans here.

Aspergillosis

Aspergillosis is the name given to a wide variety of diseases caused by infection by fungi of the genus Aspergillus. Aspergillosis occurs in chronic or acute forms which are clinically very distinct. Most cases of acute aspergillosis occur in patients with severely compromised immune systems. Chronic colonization or infection can cause complications in people with underlying respiratory illnesses. Discover the latest research on aspergillosis here.
