Virulence profiles of ten Paracoccidioides brasiliensis isolates obtained from armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus)
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2003-04-01)
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the etiologic agent of paracoccidioidomycosis ( PCM), the most important systemic mycosis in Latin America. The armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus, has been confirmed as the primary natural ...
Characterization of virulence profile, protein secretion and immunogenicity of different Sporothrix schenckii sensu stricto isolates compared with S. globosa and S. brasiliensis species
(Landes Bioscience, 2013-04-01)
A comparative study about protein secretion, immunogenicity and virulence was performed in order to characterize and to compare eight Sporothrix schenckii sensu stricto isolates. for virulence characterization, a murine ...
Impact of resistance to fluconazole on virulence and morphological aspects of Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii isolates
(2016-02-16)
Cryptococcus sp. are responsible for around 1 million cases of meningitis every year. Fluconazole (FLU) is commonly used in the treatment of cryptococcosis, mainly in immunocompromised patients and the resistance is usually ...
Typification of virulent and low virulence Babesia bigemina clones by 18S rRNA and rap-1c
(2014-06)
The population structure of original Babesia bigemina isolates and reference strains with a defined phenotypic profile was assessed using 18S rRNA and rap-1c genes. Two reference strains, BbiS2P-c (virulent) and BbiS1A-c ...
Virulence profile comparison between LEE-negative Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains isolated from cattle and humans
(Elsevier Science, 2010-07)
For comparison purposes, the prevalence of 8 virulence markers was investigated, by PCR, in 153 cattle and 47 human Locus for Enterocyte Effacement (LEE)-negative Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains ...
Assessing the diversity of the virulence potential of Escherichia coli isolated from bacteremia in São Paulo, Brazil
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2013-11-01)
Most of the knowledge of the virulence determinants of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) comes from studies with human strains causing urinary tract infections and neonatal meningitis and animal strains ...

Clonal profile, virulence and resistance of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from sheep milk
(Sociedade Brasileira de Microbiologia, 2015-06-01)
The objective of this study was to characterize the clonal profile, virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance, particularly oxacillin resistance, of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from sheep milk. Milk samples were ...
Virulence attenuation and phenotypic variation of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis isolates obtained from armadillos and patients
(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 2006-05-01)
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the etiological agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, the most important systemic mycosis in Latin America. The virulence profiles of five isolates of P. brasiliensis were studied in two different ...
Virulence of Cryptococcus sp Biofilms In Vitro and In Vivo using Galleria mellonella as an Alternative Model
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2016-03-09)
Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii are fungal pathogens that are most commonly found in infections of the central nervous system, which cause life-threatening meningoencephalitis and can grow as a biofilm. Biofilms are ...
