Rapid Rule Out of Culture-Negative Bloodstream Infections by Use of a Novel Approach to Universal Detection of Bacteria and Fungi.

The journal of applied laboratory medicine
BACKGROUND: Currently it can take up to 5 days to rule out bloodstream infection. With the low yield of blood cultures (approximately 10%), a significant number of patients are potentially exposed to inappropriate therapy that can lead to adverse eve...

Inhibition of in vitro trichothecenes production by microalgae phenolic extracts.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
There is evidence that microalgae phenolic compounds can inhibit the growth of toxigenic fungi. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of microalgae phenolic extracts to inhibit trichothecene production by Fusarium genus and thereby identify parame...

Gradients of three coastal environments off the South China Sea and their impacts on the dynamics of heterotrophic microbial communities.

The Science of the total environment
Heterotrophic fungus-like marine protists are recognized to contribute significantly to the coastal carbon cycling largely due to their high biomass and ability to decompose recalcitrant organic matter. Yet, little is known about their dynamics at po...

Evaluation of a protocol for reducing the microbial contamination of dental unit water.

Acta odontologica latinoamericana : AOL
Biofilm on dental unit waterlines can spread microbial contamination in the water. The aim of this study was to investigate microbial contamination of water from supplies and dental units before and after the implementation of a protocol for microbia...

Antifungal activity of the essential oils of some medicinal plants against human and plant fungal pathogens.

Cellular and molecular biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France)
The present study was conducted to assess the antifungal activity of essential oils of medicinal plants Mentha piperita (peppermint), Foeniculum vulgare, Satureja hortensis (Savory), Ferula asafoetida and Cuminum cyminum against Alternaria sp., Bipol...

Ultrasound-assisted extraction of antimicrobial compounds from Thymus daenensis and Silybum marianum: Antimicrobial activity with and without the presence of natural silver nanoparticles.

Ultrasonics sonochemistry
The present study is devoted to prepare a new antibacterial and antifungal agent based on in situ-synthesized silver nanoparticles at room temperature using Rosmarinus officinalis (R. officinalis) leaf extract. The Ag-NPs characterization by UV-visib...

A Fungus Spores Dataset and a Convolutional Neural Network Based Approach for Fungus Detection.

IEEE transactions on nanobioscience
Fungus is enormously notorious for food, human health, and archives. Fungus sign and symptoms in medical science are non-specific and asymmetrical for extremely large areas resulting into a challenging task of fungal detection. Various traditional an...

funbarRF: DNA barcode-based fungal species prediction using multiclass Random Forest supervised learning model.

BMC genetics
BACKGROUND: Identification of unknown fungal species aids to the conservation of fungal diversity. As many fungal species cannot be cultured, morphological identification of those species is almost impossible. But, DNA barcoding technique can be empl...

Predicting the concentration of indoor culturable fungi using a kernel-based extreme learning machine (K-ELM).

International journal of environmental health research
Indoor fungal is of great significance for human health. The kernel-based extreme learning machine is employed to determine the most important parameters for predicting the concentration of indoor culturable fungi (ICF). For model training and statis...

A Laboratory-Built Fully Automated Ultrasonication Robot for Filamentous Fungi Homogenization.

SLAS technology
This article presents the design and development of a new hands-free ultrasonication robot for filamentous fungi homogenization. The platform was constructed with a modified inexpensive 3D printer, equipped with an upward-facing camera, a custom-desi...
