| a clinical isolate of candida palmioleophila formerly identified as torulopsis candida. | a strain of yeast labeled torulopsis candida, which was isolated from a clinical specimen in canada and reported as a new opportunistic pathogen causing intravenous catheter-associated fungemia, was found to be a strain of candida palmioleophila in a dna-dna reassociation experiment. | 1999 | 9929578 |
| novel dehydrogenase catalyzes oxidative hydrolysis of carbon-nitrogen double bonds for hydrazone degradation. | hydrazines and their derivatives are versatile artificial and natural compounds that are metabolized by elusive biological systems. here we identified microorganisms that assimilate hydrazones and isolated the yeast, candida palmioleophila mk883. when cultured with adipic acid bis(ethylidene hydrazide) as the sole source of carbon, c. palmioleophila mk883 degraded hydrazones and accumulated adipic acid dihydrazide. cytosolic nad+- or nadp+-dependent hydrazone dehydrogenase (hdh) activity was det ... | 2008 | 18096698 |
| debaryomyces hansenii (candida famata), a rare human fungal pathogen often misidentified as pichia guilliermondii (candida guilliermondii). | debaryomyces hansenii is a hemiascomycetous yeast commonly found in natural substrates and in various types of cheese. pichia guilliermondii is widely distributed in nature and is a common constituent of the normal human microflora. both species have been described in human infections but are extremely difficult to differentiate phenotypically. thus, frequent errors in identification occur. the 62 clinical and environmental isolates sent between 2000 and 2007 to the french national reference cen ... | 2008 | 18701668 |
| candida palmioleophila: characterization of a previously overlooked pathogen and its unique susceptibility profile in comparison with five related species. | candida palmioleophila has previously been misidentified as c. famata or c. guilliermondii. we have investigated traditional and modern identification methods for the identification of this and related species. forty-one clinical isolates previously identified as c. famata or c. guilliermondii and 8 reference strains were included. color development on chromagar, growth temperature ranges, micromorphologies, carbon assimilation (id32c), matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight ... | 2010 | 21147953 |
| molecular identification of pichia guilliermondii, debaryomyces hansenii and candida palmioleophila. | traditional phenotypic methods and commercial kits based on carbohydrate assimilation patterns are unable to consistently distinguish among isolates of pichia guilliermondii, debaryomyces hansenii and candida palmioleophila. as result, these species are often misidentified. in this work, we established a reliable method for the identification/differentiation of these species. our assay was validated by dna sequencing of the polymorphic region used in a real-time pcr assay driven by species-speci ... | 2011 | 22481884 |
| development of two molecular approaches for differentiation of clinically relevant yeast species closely related to candida guilliermondii and candida famata. | the emerging pathogens candida palmioleophila, candida fermentati, and debaryomyces nepalensis are often misidentified as candida guilliermondii or candida famata in the clinical laboratory. due to the significant differences in antifungal susceptibilities and epidemiologies among these closely related species, a lot of studies have focused on the identification of these emerging yeast species in clinical specimens. nevertheless, limited tools are currently available for their discrimination. he ... | 2014 | 24951804 |

| screening, identification and optimization of a yeast strain, candida palmioleophila jks4, capable of azo dye decolorization. | synthetic dyes are recalcitrant to degradation and toxic to different organisms. decolorization of textile wastewaters is one of the major concerns since last decades. physical-chemical treatments are very expensive and frequently producing large amounts of toxic wastes. biological treatments can be more convenient. in the present study, an attempt has been made for decolorization of azo dyes using microbial process. | 2013 | 25848518 |
| scheffersomyces parashehatae f.a., sp. nov., scheffersomyces xylosifermentans f.a., sp. nov., candida broadrunensis sp. nov. and candida manassasensis sp. nov., novel yeasts associated with wood-ingesting insects, and their ecological and biofuel implications. | during a survey of yeasts associated with wood-ingesting insects, 69 strains in the scheffersomyces clade and related taxa were isolated from passalid and tenebrionid beetles and the decayed wood inhabited by them. the majority of these yeasts was found to be capable of fermenting xylose, and was recognized as scheffersomyces stipitis or its close relative scheffersomyces illinoinensis, which are known to be associated with wood-decaying beetles and rotten wood. yeasts in 'scheffersomyces' ( = c ... | 2013 | 24014624 |
