Fungal Species: Candida rugosa

Potential Roles of Exogenous Proteases and Lipases as Prebiotics

This review explores how digestive enzymes like proteases and lipases work similarly to prebiotics—foods that feed beneficial bacteria in your gut. When animals consumed supplements of these enzymes, their gut bacteria became healthier, producing more beneficial compounds and showing improved intestinal health. These findings suggest that fermented foods and raw foods containing natural digestive enzymes, as well as enzyme supplements, may help promote a healthy gut microbiome.

Prevalence and antifungal susceptibility profiles of Candida isolates among patients with candiduria: a multiplex PCR assay

Researchers studied fungal infections in urine samples from hospitalized patients and found that while the common yeast Candida albicans was most prevalent, other Candida species were increasingly resistant to antifungal medications. Using advanced genetic testing methods, they identified seven different Candida species and tested their resistance to three common antifungal drugs. The findings highlight the growing problem of drug-resistant fungal infections and the need for better diagnostic tools to identify which species is causing infection so appropriate treatment can be selected.

Innovative applications and therapeutic potential of oilseeds and their by-products: An eco-friendly and sustainable approach

This review explains how leftover materials from oilseed processing, which are usually discarded as waste, contain valuable nutrients and healing compounds. These by-products can be used to make healthier foods like bread, burgers, and drinks, or turned into supplements and medicines. By using these materials instead of wasting them, we can reduce environmental problems, provide better nutrition, and create sustainable food products that help prevent diseases like diabetes and heart problems.
