Ultrastructure of Candida albicans pleomorphic forms: phase-contrast microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy.
A modified method of glutaraldeyde-osmium tetroxide fixation was adjusted to characterize the ultrastructure of Candida albicans pleomorphic forms, using phase-contrast microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The discovered morphological criteria defining the individual morphotypes are discussed in terms of mycological and histopathological diagnostics of ...
متن کاملCandida albicans morphologies revealed by scanning electron microscopy analysis
Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations were used to analyze particular morphologies of Candida albicans clinical isolate (strain 82) and mutants defective in hyphae-promoting genes EFG1 (strain HLC52) and/or CPH1 (strains HLC54 and Can16). Transcription factors Efg1 and Cph1 play role in regulating filamentation and adhesion of C. albicans' morphologies. Comparative analysis of such mu...
متن کاملChemical composition of chlamydospores of Candida albicans.
A variety of analytical techniques was employed to study the composition of the chlamydospore of Candida albicans. The outer, thin, electron-transparent layer was found to be composed of glucan, together with a small amount of chitin. The inner, thick, electron-dense layer is proteinaceous. The central structure is composed largely of ribonucleic acid and lipid globules. In addition to being ac...
متن کاملScanning electron microscopic studies of Candida albicans.
A scanning electron microscopic study of selected morphological stages of Candida albicans is presented. Stages represented are budding yeast cells, mycelial-like forms, chlamydospores, germ tube formation, and an unusual rough cell type.
متن کاملExperimental hematogenous Candida albicans endophthalmitis: electron microscopy.
As part of a study of pathogenesis of experimental hematogenous Candida albicans endophthalmitis in New Zealand White female rabbits, lesions of the disease were examined electron microscopically 4 to 16 days after intravenous inoculation with a patient's strain of C. albicans. Each lesion consisted of an inflammatory retinovitreal nodule and a surrounding zone of infiltrated chorioretina. The ...
