Production of fumagillin by Aspergillus fumigatus isolated from traditional trituration units, ¿Maasra¿, in Morocco (2008)

C. Augur, H. Lakhtar, I. Gaime Perraud, K. Lamrani, M. Ettalibi, M. Ismaili Alaoui, ...

Olive oil production in Morocco is carried out at traditional trituration units called ¿maasras¿. The thermophilic mycobiota present in these places was studied, from which strains of Aspergillus...

Brain abscess caused by Nocardia cyriacigeorgica in a patient with human immunodeficiency virus infection (2005)

Deschamps, C, Manceron, V, Laurent, F, Bert, F, ...

Nocardia cyriacigeorgica is a recently characterized species within the genus of Nocardia. We report a brain abscess, following a primary pulmonary colonization, due to this species in a human...

Acyclic Improper Colorings of Graphs (1998)

P. Boiron, E. Sopena, L. Vignal

In this paper, we introduce the new notion of acyclic improper colorings of graphs. An improper coloring of a graph is a vertex-coloring in which adjacent vertices are allowed to have the same color,...

Acyclic improper colorings of graphs (1997)

P. Boiron, E. Sopena, L. Vignal

In this paper, we introduce the new notion of acyclic improper colorings of graphs. An improper coloring of a graph G is a mapping c from the set of vertices of G to a set of colors such that for...

P. Boiron, E. Sopena, L. Vignal

Abstract. In this paper, we introduce the new notion of acyclic improper colorings of graphs. An improper coloring of a graph is a vertex-coloring in which adjacent vertices are allowed to have the...

Acyclic Improper Colourings of Graphs with Bounded Degree (1997)

P. Boiron, E. Sopena, L. Vignal

In this paper, we continue the study of acyclic improper colourings of graphs introduced in a previous work. An improper colouring of a graph G is a mapping c from the set of vertices of G to a set...

Entry of ketoconazole into Candida albicans.

Boiron, P, Drouhet, E, Dupont, B, Improvisi, L

To define characteristics that determine the entry of ketoconazole (KTZ) into Candida albicans cells, we studied the uptake of [3H]KTZ. The cells rapidly and markedly concentrated the drug: 30% of...

Use of yeast killer system to identify species of the Nocardia asteroides complex.

Provost, F, Polonelli, L, Conti, S, Fisicaro, P, Gerloni, M, Boiron, P

We evaluated the ability of the yeast killer system to differentiate members belonging to the Nocardia asteroides complex (Nocardia asteroides, Nocardia farcinica, and Nocardia nova). Nocardia...

Molecular study of nosocomial nocardiosis outbreak involving heart transplant recipients.

Exmelin, L, Malbruny, B, Vergnaud, M, Prosvost, F, Boiron, P, Morel, C

Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis and rRNA gene restriction patterns (ribotyping) were compared as methods of investigating a nosocomial outbreak of nocardiosis involving three heart...

Ribotyping: a tool for taxonomy and identification of the Nocardia asteroides complex species.

Laurent, F, Carlotti, A, Boiron, P, Villard, J, Freney, J

Ribotyping has been evaluated as a taxonomic tool for studying bacteria belonging to the Nocardia asteroides complex. The probe used was obtained by PCR from DNA extracted from the type strain...

Severe keratitis due to Nocardia farcinica.

Eggink, C A, Wesseling, P, Boiron, P, Meis, J F

Keratitis due to Nocardia farcinica occurred in a 49-year-old female after inappropriate cleaning of her semipermeable rigid contact lenses with basin-stored water during a holiday in France. N....

Molecular study of persistence of Nocardia asteroides and Nocardia otitidiscaviarum strains in patients with long-term nocardiosis.

Provost, F, Laurent, F, Uzcategui, L R, Boiron, P

Three Nocardia asteroides and five Nocardia otitidiscaviarum isolates recovered from three patients with long-term nocardiosis were compared by random amplification of polymorphic DNA fingerprinting,...

Monoclonal antibodies to a specific 54-kilodalton antigen of Nocardia spp.

Boiron, P, Stynen, D, Belkacem, G, Goris, A, Provost, F

Two monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) of the immunoglobulin G2A isotype, reacting with a Nocardia-specific 54-kDa antigen, were generated. As determined by Western blot (immunoblot), both MAbs reacted...

Candida albicans genotyping in studies with patients with AIDS developing resistance to fluconazole.

Bart-Delabesse, E, Boiron, P, Carlotti, A, Dupont, B

We characterized Candida albicans strains responsible for recurrent oropharyngeal candidosis (OPC) in four patients with AIDS who developed clinical and mycological resistance to fluconazole (FCZ)....

Urease-negative Nocardia asteroides causing cutaneous nocardiosis.

Boiron, P, Lafaurie, C, Rabbache, A, Brown, J, Carteret, R, Petit, J

We report a case of cutaneous nocardiosis, caused by a urease-negative strain of Nocardia asteroides, in a patient who had undergone long-term corticosteroid therapy. The microbiological...

Use of partially purified 54-kilodalton antigen for diagnosis of nocardiosis by Western blot (immunoblot) assay.

Boiron, P, Provost, F

A Western blot (immunoblot) assay is presented for the diagnosis of nocardiosis with a specific immunodominant 54-kilodalton (kDa) antigen purified from a culture filtrate of Nocardia asteroides by...

Brain Abscess Caused by Nocardia cyriacigeorgica in a Patient with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

Barnaud, G., Deschamps, C., Manceron, V., Mortier, E., Laurent, F., Bert, F., ...

Nocardia cyriacigeorgica is a recently characterized species within the genus of Nocardia. We report a brain abscess, following a primary pulmonary colonization, due to this species in a human...
