Single-Cell Optical Nanomotion of Candida albicans in Microwells for Rapid Antifungal Susceptibility Testing

Candida albicans is an emerging multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen representing an important source of invasive disease in humans and generating high healthcare costs worldwide. The development of a rapid and simple antifungal susceptibility test ( ...

Modulation of the nanoscale motion rate of Candida albicans by X-rays

Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba

IntroductionPatients undergoing cancer treatment by radiation therapy commonly develop Candida albicans infections (candidiasis). Such infections are generally treated by antifungals that unfortunately also induce numerous secondary effects in the patient. ...

Self-Assembly of N-Rich Triimidazoles on Ag(111): Mixing the Pleasures and Pains of Epitaxy and Strain

Christian Wäckerlin, Ulrich Aschauer, Xing Wang, Mehdi Heydari

In the present report, homochiral hydrogen-bonded assemblies of heavily N-doped (C9H6N6) heterocyclic triimidazole (TT) molecules on an Ag(111) substrate were investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) ...

The Dynamics of Single-Cell Nanomotion Behaviour of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in a Microfluidic Chip for Rapid Antifungal Susceptibility Testing

Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba

The fast emergence of multi-resistant pathogenic yeasts is caused by the extensive-and sometimes unnecessary-use of broad-spectrum antimicrobial drugs. To rationalise the use of broad-spectrum antifungals, it is essential to have a rapid and sensitive syst ...

Yeast Nanometric Scale Oscillations Highlights Fibronectin Induced Changes in C. albicans

Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, Anne-Céline Verenna Kohler, Leonardo Venturelli

Yeast resistance to antifungal drugs is a major public health issue. Fungal adhesion onto the host mucosal surface is still a partially unknown phenomenon that is modulated by several actors among which fibronectin plays an important role. Targeting the ye ...

Organotin(IV) 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)piperazine-1-carbodithioates: Synthesis, characterization and biological activities

Paul Joseph Dyson

A series of organotin(IV) derivatives R3SnL (1-3), R2SnLCl (4-6) and R2SnL2 (7-9) (where R = Me, Bu, Ph and L = 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)piperazine-1-carbodithioate) were prepared from the reaction of 4-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-ylmethyl)piperazine-1 ...

Fungicidal activity of copper-sputtered flexible surfaces under dark and actinic light against azole-resistant Candida albicans and Candida glabrata

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Myriam Koumba Sarah Ballo

Candida spp. are able to survive on hospital surfaces and causes healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs). Since surface cleaning and disinfecting interventions are not totally effective to eliminate Candida spp., new approaches should be devised. Copper ( ...

Synthesis, structural elucidation and biological activities of organotin(IV) derivatives of 4-(2-thienyl)butyric acid

Paul Joseph Dyson

A series of tri- and diorganotin(IV) derivatives of 4-(2-thienyl)butyric acid have been synthesized by the reaction of ligand acid with tri- and diorganotin salts in 1:1 and 2:1 molar ratios, respectively. The synthesized compounds have been confirmed by C ...

Endocrine Disrupting Compounds Affecting Corticosteroid Signaling Pathways in Czech and Swiss Waters: Potential Impact on Fish

Kristin Schirmer

This study investigated the occurrence of corticosteroid signaling disruptors in wastewaters and rivers in the Czech Republic and in Switzerland. 36 target compounds were detected using HPLC-MS/MS, with up to 6.4 mu g/L for azole antifungals that indirectl ...

Characterization of active site structure in CYP121: A cytochrome P450 essential for viability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv

Stewart Cole

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) cytochrome P450 gene CYP121 is shown to be essential for viability of the bacterium in vitro by gene knock-out with complementation. Production of CYP121 protein in Mtb cells is demonstrated. Minimum inhibitory concentratio ...
