The good, the bad, and the hazardous: comparative genomic analysis unveils cell wall features in the pathogen Candidozyma auris typical for both baker's yeast and Candida.
FEMS Yeast Res
January 2024
The drug-resistant pathogenic yeast Candidozyma auris (formerly named Candida auris) is considered a critical health problem of global importance. As the cell wall plays a crucial role in pathobiology, here we performed a detailed bioinformatic analysis of its biosynthesis in C. auris and related Candidozyma haemuli complex species using Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae as references.

- * A plasma-assisted method using a falling film plasma reactor successfully achieved a 98.4% removal rate of 200 nm polystyrene nanoplastics in one hour, which improved to 99.3% after three hours, also reducing total organic carbon in the solution by 27.4%.
- * The research found that the degradation of nanoplastics likely resulted in the creation of short polystyrene oligomers and demonstrated that plasma-assisted treatment is more effective than traditional ozonation methods for addressing nanoplastic pollution in water.
