characterization of trichosporon species isolated from clinical specimens in kuwait. | invasive trichosporonosis is an emerging infection of severely immunocompromised patients. it is principally caused by trichosporon asahii, although some other species of the genus have also been implicated in the aetiology. in this work, 29 clinical isolates of trichosporon species recovered from 29 different patients over a 6-year period were studied for phenotypic and genotypic characteristics. two morphotypes were recognized on the basis of colony characteristics. the colonies of 25 isolates ... | 2005 | 15947428 |
