Dishwashers provide a selective extreme environment for human-opportunistic yeast-like fungi

2015-03-19

Abstract excerpt

Urban life has led to the creation of human-made environments that, from a microbiological perspective, provide extreme life conditions. Certain non-ubiquitous microorganisms such as thermophilic members of the black yeast genus Exophiala are enriched within these habitats for which no counterpart is known in nature. Dishwashers consistently accumulate a number of specific black, white and red yeasts on the rubber...
