the genus malasezia currently includes fourteen species that have been isolated from healthy and diseased human and animal skin. however, there were differences with respect to the species most commonly isolated, not only in patients with various skin diseases but also between healthy individuals. the aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of malassezia species from clinically normal s...

  In this study Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) was applied to species identification of bester hybrids. Hybrids identification was performed by comparison of electrophoresis profiles with parental species. The simultaneous occurrence of diagnostic bands fixed in the parental species, genetic distance and identification and cluster analyses (UPGMA) allow a correct identification. ...

introduction: recently, the incidence of fungal infections dramatically increased with an appearance of many novel species due to different criteria. therefore, several molecular methods have been established for identification of these agents which cause human and animal disorder based on genomic dna. among these methods, rapd-pcr technique is a powerful discriminative method based on amplifie...

lipophilic yeast of the genus malassezia (pityrosporum) belongs to the normal flora of human skin and many warm-blooded animals. these fungi can produce a diverse range of diseases that the best known and most frequent of them is pityriasis versicolor, a chronic recurrent skin disease occurring primarily in tropical regions. the genus malassezia has been recently enlarged to include seven disti...

In this research foliar anatomy of seven species of Avena are studied under the light microscope and the scanning electron microscope (SEM). This study includes seven species, namely, A. barbata, A. clauda, A. eriantha, A. fatua, A. ludoviciana, A. sativa and A. wiestii. Different anatomical characters sush as number of bulliform cells, mesophyll thickness, midrib, number of vascular bundles fr...

background and objectives: the genus malassezia contains an expanding list of lipophilic yeasts involve in the etiology of various superficial fungal infections. pityriasis versicolor (pv) is the most prevalent malassezia -related infection distributed worldwide. in the present study, clinical and epidemiological features of the genus malassezia are discussed with special focus on pv in iran. m...

background: systemic candidiasis is a major complication in neutropenic cancer patients undergoing treatment. most systemic fungal infections emerge from endogenous microflora so the aim of the present study was to identify candida species isolated from the different regions of body   in neutropenic patients in compare with the control group. methods: a total of 309 neutropenic cancer patients ...
