| new feather-degrading filamentous fungi. | among 106 filamentous fungi isolated from poultry farm waste, 13 species belonging to seven genera (aspergillus, acremonium, alternaria, beauvaria, curvularia, paecilomyces, and penicillium) were able to grow and produce keratinase in stationary cultures using poultry feather powder as the only substrate. the four most efficient keratinase producers were selected for a comparative study of keratinase production in submerged and stationary conditions. the highest keratinolytic activities were pro ... | 2008 | 17899245 |
| [study of the effect of volatile metabolites of trichoderma hamatum on the growth of phytopathogenic soilborne fungi.]. | volatile compounds produced by trichoderma hamatum were tested for their capacity to suppress in vitro the growth of alternaria citri, bipolaris cynodontis, bipolaris sorokiniana, curvularia brachyspora, curvularia lunata, curvularia oryzae-sativae, drechslera tritici-repentis, rhizoctonia solani, sclerotinia minor and sclerotium rolfsii. the organisms were cultured in an apparatus made with two erlenmeyer flasks assembled by their top parts. with the aid of the gas chromatographic technique the ... | 1997 | 17655390 |
| isolation of fungi in musca domestica linnaeus, 1758 (diptera: muscidae) captured at two natural breeding grounds in the municipality of serop dica, rio de janeiro, brazil. | the objective of this study was to isolate and identify fungal species found in natural association with adults of musca domestica. the adult insects were collected from two natural breeding grounds: hog pens and an urban sanitary landfill. the isolated fungi were identified as: aspergillus flavus (23.8%), a. niger var. niger (14.4%), penicillium corylophilum (21.4%), p. fellutanum (11.9%), cladosporium cladosporoides (4.7%), fusarium sp. (4.7%), alternaria alternata (11.9%), curvularia brachysp ... | 2003 | 12563474 |
| necrotizing cutaneous infection caused by curvularia brachyspora in an immunocompetent host. | a case of necrotizing cutaneous infection in an immunocompetent host caused by the dematiaceous fungus, curvularia brachyspora is presented. a 58-year-old man was transferred to the prince henry hospital for treatment of necrotizing cellulitis involving both thighs that developed following cryotherapy. the patient did not respond to antibacterial therapy and hyperbaric oxygen. he was empirically commenced on intravenous amphotericin b and began to respond even before the pathogen c. brachyspora ... | 1997 | 9159965 |
| mycotic keratitis caused by curvularia brachyspora (boedjin). a report of the first case. | curvularia brachyspora has been identified for the first time as a cause of mycotic keratitis. mycotic infections of the eye have assumed increasing importance in ophthalmology, resulting in a need for fungal identification and early specific treatment for the successful management of cases. a case of mycotic keratitis caused by c. brachyspora is described against the background of other curvularia species causing mycoses. | 1992 | 1406905 |
