| aspergillus spp. colonization in exhaled breath condensate of lung cancer patients from puglia region of italy. | airways of lung cancer patients are often colonized by fungi. some of these colonizing fungi, under particular conditions, produce cancerogenic mycotoxins. given the recent interest in the infective origin of lung cancer, with this preliminary study we aim to give our small contribution to this field of research by analysing the fungal microbiome of the exhaled breath condensate of lung cancer patients from puglia, a region of italy. | 2014 | 24548615 |
