The pathogenic yeast Trichosporon asahii is the major causative agent of deep-seated trichosporonosis in immunocompromised patients. Although infection by this microorganism is becoming increasingly frequent, information related to its pathogenicity and virulence factors is still limited. Therefore,
"Paracoccidioidomycosis ceti" is a rare zoonotic fungal infection affecting dolphins and is endemic worldwide. The causative agents are Paracoccidioides species; however, it is impossible to isolate the fungal species. We isolated Trichosporon asteroides from multifocal, irregularly raised skin
The fungal genus Trichosporon contains emerging opportunistic pathogens of humans, and is the third most commonly isolated non-candidal yeast from humans. Trichosporon asahii and T. asteroides are the most important species causing disseminated disease in immunocompromised patients, while inhalation
BACKGROUND
The knowledge of the diversity of yeasts that make up the skin microbiota of human beings is essential for the efficient monitoring of infections to which a person may be predisposed.
OBJECTIVE
This study identified yeasts comprising the genital skin microbiota of patients attending the
