Fungal Species: Aspergillus quadrilineatus

A Unique Case of Fungal Endometritis Caused by Aspergillus quadrilineatus in an Immunocompetent Woman and Literature Review

A 64-year-old woman experienced persistent vaginal bleeding for three months, which was found to be caused by a rare fungal infection (Aspergillus quadrilineatus) in her uterus. Through tissue examination and molecular testing, doctors identified the fungus and found it was sensitive to common antifungal medications. The patient was successfully treated with antifungal medication combined with surgical cleaning of the uterus, making a complete recovery. This case highlights that fungal infections should be considered when patients have abnormal vaginal bleeding, even if they appear otherwise healthy.

The removal of black ink via Emericella quadrilineata as a green alternative technique to recycling ink waste papers

Researchers discovered that a fungus called Aspergillus quadrilineatus can effectively remove black ink from waste paper, offering an eco-friendly alternative to harmful chemical deinking methods. Under optimal conditions, the fungus removed 97% of ink in just 6 days by absorbing it onto its surface and breaking it down with special enzymes. This biological approach could help reduce environmental pollution from paper recycling while making the process more cost-effective and sustainable.

The removal of black ink via Emericella quadrilineata as a green alternative technique to recycling ink waste papers

Researchers discovered that a fungus called Aspergillus quadrilineatus can remove black ink from waste papers, providing an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical-based recycling methods. Under optimal conditions including neutral pH and room temperature, the fungus successfully removed 97% of ink from contaminated papers through a process called biosorption. This natural approach uses enzymes produced by the fungus to break down and remove the ink, making it a cost-effective solution for paper recycling that reduces environmental damage from traditional chemical methods.
