  3. Candida albicans

  4. Candidiasis • C. albicans • Most common human infection • Adapts rapidly • Phenotypic switching • Adhesion • Virulence • Yeast • Mannose • Hypha • Complement receptor and Fcγ receptor

  5. Candidiasis • Candida vaginitis • Cutaneouscandidiasis • Invasive candidiasis

  6. Oral Thrush

  7. Cryptococcosis • Cryptococcus neoformans • Opportunistic infection • Virulence factors • Polysaccharide capsule • Glucuronoxylomannin • Anti-phagocytic • Phenotypic switching • Melanin production • antioxidant properties • Enzymes • serine proteinase • invasiveness

  8. Aspergillusfumigatus

  9. Aspergillosis • Allergic BronchopulmonaryAspergillosis • Immunocompromised • Sinusitis • Pneumonia • Invasive disease • Neutropenia and Corticosteroid use • Aflatoxin B1
