| genetic diversity of human pathogenic members of the fusarium oxysporum complex inferred from multilocus dna sequence data and amplified fragment length polymorphism analyses: evidence for the recent dispersion of a geographically widespread clonal lineage and nosocomial origin. | fusarium oxysporum is a phylogenetically diverse monophyletic complex of filamentous ascomycetous fungi that are responsible for localized and disseminated life-threatening opportunistic infections in immunocompetent and severely neutropenic patients, respectively. although members of this complex were isolated from patients during a pseudoepidemic in san antonio, tex., and from patients and the water system in a houston, tex., hospital during the 1990s, little is known about their genetic relat ... | 2004 | 15528703 |
| low utility of pediatric isolator blood culture system for detection of fungemia in children: a 10-year review. | the use of the wampole isolator 1.5-ml pediatric blood culture tube for the detection of fungemia in children was assessed by a 10-year retrospective review at two pediatric hospitals, the hospital for sick children in toronto, canada, and the children's medical center of dallas, texas. over this period, a total of 9,442 pediatric isolator specimens were processed, with yeast or yeast-like organisms recovered in 297 (3.1%) of the specimens (151 [1.6%] unique clinical episodes) and filamentous or ... | 2016 | 27307462 |
