Meyerozyma guilliermondii (formerly known as Pichia guilliermondii until its rename in 2010) is a species of yeast of the genus Meyerozyma whose asexual or anamorphic form is known as Candida guilliermondii. Candida guilliermondii has been isolated from numerous human infections, mostly of cutaneous origin, if only from immunosuppressed patients.
It is a rare disease in dogs, with cats seven to ten times more likely to be infected. The disease in dogs can affect the lungs and skin, but more commonly the eye and central nervous system. [20] Ringworm is a fungal skin disease that in dogs is caused by Microsporum canis (70%), Microsporum gypseum (20%), and Trichophyton mentagrophytes (10% ...
Many dogs with house dust mite allergy have perennial disease. [4] Some of the allergens associated with atopy in dogs include pollens of trees, grasses and weeds, as well as molds and house dust mites. Ear and skin infections by the bacteria Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and the yeast Malassezia pachydermatis are commonly secondary to atopic ...
This form of disease is characterized by the appearance of lesions at sites distant to the initial infection. [1] Infection can occur in nonhuman animals and may be transmitted to humans through contact. Veterinarians are at particularly high risk of contracting disease from animals (zoonotic infection).

Trichosporon is a genus of anamorphic fungi in the family Trichosporonaceae.All species of Trichosporon are yeasts with no known teleomorphs (sexual states). Most are typically isolated from soil, but several species occur as a natural part of the skin microbiota of humans and other animals.
Rhodotorula mucilaginosa cells, Methylene blue stain, magnification 400x. Rhodotorula is a genus of fungi in the class Microbotryomycetes.Most species are known in their yeast states which produce orange to red colonies when grown on Sabouraud's dextrose agar (SDA).
Toxocara canis (T. canis, also known as dog roundworm) is a worldwide-distributed helminth parasite that primarily infects dogs and other canids, but can also infect other animals including humans. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The name is derived from the Greek word " toxon ," meaning bow or quiver, and the Latin word "caro," meaning flesh. [ 3 ]
Malassezia is a genus of fungi (specifically, a yeast). Some species of Malassezia are found on the skin of animals, including humans. Because malassezia requires fat to grow, [ 3 ] it is most common in areas with many sebaceous glands —on the scalp, [ 4 ] face, and upper part of the body.
