The cell wall of pathogenic fungi is highly important for the development of fungal infections
and is the first cellular component to interact with the host immune system. The fungal cell …

The fungal cell is surrounded by a thick cell wall which obviously play an essential role in
the protection of the fungus against external aggressive environments. In spite of 50 years of …

Chitin, a polymer of β-(1→ 4)-linked N-acetyl-d-glucosamine, is one of the main
polysaccharide components of the fungal cell wall. Its N-deacetylated form, chitosan, is …

A biosensor based on the analyte-induced aggregation of functionalized nanoparticles
recorded using two optical signals of different physical nature is developed. The …
