  • Chlamydospore Agar M113 Chlamydospore Agar Is Used for Differentiating Candida Albicans from Other Species of Candida on the Basis of Chlamydospore Formation
    HiMedia Laboratories Technical Data Chlamydospore Agar M113 Chlamydospore Agar is used for differentiating Candida albicans from other species of Candida on the basis of chlamydospore formation. Composition** Ingredients Gms / Litre Ammonium sulphate 1.000 Monopotassium phosphate 1.000 Biotin 0.000005 Trypan blue 0.100 Purified polysaccharide 20.000 Agar 15.000 Final pH ( at 25°C) 5.1±0.2 **Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters Directions Suspend 37.1 grams in 1000 ml distilled water. Heat to boiling to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15 lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. Mix well and pour into sterile Petri plates. Principle And Interpretation Candida albicans is a diploid sexual fungus (a form of yeast), and the causitive agent of opportunistic oral and vaginal infections in humans (1). C. albicans is a commensal of skin, gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract. However, under certain conditions overgrowth of this results into oesopharyngeal candidiasis, vulvovaginal candidiasis and candidemia. Chlamydospores formation is the most differential characteristic of C. albicans (1). Chlamydospore Agar was specially designed for the differentiation of C. albicans from other species on the basis of chlamydospores formation. It is prepared according to the formula of Nickerson and Mankowshi (2). Ammonium sulphate acts as sources of ions that simulate metabolism. Monopotassium phosphate provides buffering to the medium. Biotin provides the necessary vitamins required for metabolism. Purified polysaccharide acts as a source of carbon. Trypan blue is a vital dye absorbed selectively by the chlamydospores and imparts blue colour to chlamydospores, whereas the filaments are colourless. Test for chlamydospores: Scratch cut mark like X onto the agar surface with inoculum using sterile needle.

    Primerdesign TM Ltd Microsporum canis PQ-loop repeat protein gene genesig® Standard Kit 150 tests For general laboratory and research use only Quantification of Microsporum canis genomes. 1 genesig Standard kit handbook HB10.04.10 Published Date: 09/11/2018 Introduction to Microsporum canis Microsporum canis is a zoophilic dermatophyte which is responsible for dermatophytosis in dogs and cats. They cause superficial infections of the scalp (tinea capitis) in humans and ringworm in cats and dogs. They belong to the family Arthrodermataceae and are most commonly found in humid and warm climates. They have numerous multi-celled macroconidia which are typically spindle-shaped with 5-15 cells, verrucose, thick-walled, often having a terminal knob and 35-110 by 12-25 µm. In addition, they produce septate hyphae and microconidia and the Microsporum canis genome is estimated at 23 Mb. The fungus is transmitted from animals to humans when handling infected animals or by contact with arthrospores contaminating the environment. Spores are very resistant and can live up to two years infecting animals and humans. They will attach to the skin and germinate producing hyphae, which will then grow in the dead, superficial layers of the skin, hair or nails. They secrete a 31.5 kDa keratinolytic subtilisin-like protease as well as three other subtilisin- like proteases (SUBs), SUB1, SUB2 and SUB3, which cause damage to the skin and hair follicle. Keratinolytic protease also provides the fungus nutrients by degrading keratin structures into easily absorbable metabolites. Infection leads to a hypersensitive reaction of the skin. The skin becomes inflamed causing the fungus to move away from the site to normal, uninfected skin.

  • Introduction to Mycology
    INTRODUCTION TO MYCOLOGY The term "mycology" is derived from Greek word "mykes" meaning mushroom. Therefore mycology is the study of fungi. The ability of fungi to invade plant and animal tissue was observed in early 19th century but the first documented animal infection by any fungus was made by Bassi, who in 1835 studied the muscardine disease of silkworm and proved the that the infection was caused by a fungus Beauveria bassiana. In 1910 Raymond Sabouraud published his book Les Teignes, which was a comprehensive study of dermatophytic fungi. He is also regarded as father of medical mycology. Importance of fungi: Fungi inhabit almost every niche in the environment and humans are exposed to these organisms in various fields of life. Beneficial Effects of Fungi: 1. Decomposition - nutrient and carbon recycling. 2. Biosynthetic factories. The fermentation property is used for the industrial production of alcohols, fats, citric, oxalic and gluconic acids. 3. Important sources of antibiotics, such as Penicillin. 4. Model organisms for biochemical and genetic studies. Eg: Neurospora crassa 5. Saccharomyces cerviciae is extensively used in recombinant DNA technology, which includes the Hepatitis B Vaccine. 6. Some fungi are edible (mushrooms). 7. Yeasts provide nutritional supplements such as vitamins and cofactors. 8. Penicillium is used to flavour Roquefort and Camembert cheeses. 9. Ergot produced by Claviceps purpurea contains medically important alkaloids that help in inducing uterine contractions, controlling bleeding and treating migraine. 10. Fungi (Leptolegnia caudate and Aphanomyces laevis) are used to trap mosquito larvae in paddy fields and thus help in malaria control. Harmful Effects of Fungi: 1.

Morphological transitions are 17 one of the least understood of the many strategies employed by fungal plant pathogens 18 to adapt to constantly changing environments. We characterized the responses of the 19 wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici to a series of environmental stimuli using 20 microscopy, transcriptomic analyses, and survival assays to explore the effects of 21 changing environments on morphology and adaptation. We found that all tested stimuli 22 induced morphological changes, with distinct responses observed among four different 23 strains. The transcription analyses indicated a co-regulation of morphogenesis and 24 virulence factors in Z.

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-25308-w OPEN Phylogenomics of a new fungal phylum reveals multiple waves of reductive evolution across Holomycota ✉ ✉ Luis Javier Galindo 1 , Purificación López-García 1, Guifré Torruella1, Sergey Karpov2,3 & David Moreira 1 Compared to multicellular fungi and unicellular yeasts, unicellular fungi with free-living fla- gellated stages (zoospores) remain poorly known and their phylogenetic position is often 1234567890():,; unresolved. Recently, rRNA gene phylogenetic analyses of two atypical parasitic fungi with amoeboid zoospores and long kinetosomes, the sanchytrids Amoeboradix gromovi and San- chytrium tribonematis, showed that they formed a monophyletic group without close affinity with known fungal clades. Here, we sequence single-cell genomes for both species to assess their phylogenetic position and evolution. Phylogenomic analyses using different protein datasets and a comprehensive taxon sampling result in an almost fully-resolved fungal tree, with Chytridiomycota as sister to all other fungi, and sanchytrids forming a well-supported, fast-evolving clade sister to Blastocladiomycota. Comparative genomic analyses across fungi and their allies (Holomycota) reveal an atypically reduced metabolic repertoire for sanchy- trids. We infer three main independent flagellum losses from the distribution of over 60 flagellum-specific proteins across Holomycota. Based on sanchytrids’ phylogenetic position and unique traits, we propose the designation of a novel phylum, Sanchytriomycota. In addition, our results indicate that most of the hyphal morphogenesis gene repertoire of multicellular fungi had already evolved in early holomycotan lineages. 1 Ecologie Systématique Evolution, CNRS, Université Paris-Saclay, AgroParisTech, Orsay, France. 2 Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, St. ✉ Petersburg, Russia. 3 St.

  • Biological Classification Chapter 2
    16 BIOLOGY CHAPTER 2 BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION 2.1 Kingdom Monera Since the dawn of civilisation, there have been many attempts to classify living organisms. It was done instinctively not using criteria that were 2.2 Kingdom Protista scientific but borne out of a need to use organisms for our own use – for 2.3 Kingdom Fungi food, shelter and clothing. Aristotle was the earliest to attempt a more 2.4 Kingdom Plantae scientific basis for classification. He used simple morphological characters to classify plants into trees, shrubs and herbs. He also divided animals 2.5 Kingdom into two groups, those which had red blood and those that did not. Animalia In Linnaeus' time a Two Kingdom system of classification with 2.6 Viruses, Viroids Plantae and Animalia kingdoms was developed that included all plants and Lichens and animals respectively. This system was used till very recently. This system did not distinguish between the eukaryotes and prokaryotes, unicellular and multicellular organisms and photosynthetic (green algae) and non-photosynthetic (fungi) organisms. Classification of organisms into plants and animals was easily done and was easy to understand, inspite, a large number of organisms did not fall into either category. Hence the two kingdom classification used for a long time was found inadequate. A need was also felt for including, besides gross morphology, other characteristics like cell structure, nature of wall, mode of nutrition, habitat, methods of reproduction, evolutionary relationships, etc. Classification systems for the living organisms have hence, undergone several changes over time. Though plant and animal kingdoms have been a constant under all different systems, the understanding of what groups/organisms be included under these kingdoms have been changing; the number and nature of other kingdoms have also been understood differently by different scientists over time.
