“…Among the microscopic findings of mucormycosis, we highlight the presence of folded and wrinkled hyphae ( ribbon‐like pattern), broad (10‐15 µm in width), thin walls and in most cases, the absence of septa with right‐angled branching (in Aspergillus sp, branching is typically is at 45°) 4 . Although these morphological features are usually recognized with the Papanicolaou method and haematoxylin and eosin staining, special stains, such as periodic acid‐Schiff stain and Grocott methenamine silver stain are especially useful for demonstrating the presence of fungi on both cytological and histological specimens.…”

A 46-year-old woman presented at the outpatient clinic with nasal congestion, purulent discharge, facial pain with pressure sensation, headache, hyposmia and fever (38.2°C) that had persisted for 4 months. This symptomatology was worse at night or upon awakening in the morning. Three months before, she was initially treated with antibiotics (amoxicillin/clavulanate) for 10 days but did not improve. An anterior rhinoscopy examination demonstrated bilateral

Although wastewater and treatment plants harbor many pathogenic organisms' traditional methods that monitor the microbial quality of wastewater have not changed since the early 1900s and often disregard the presence of other types of significant waterborne pathogens such as viruses. Using advanced technology, our study aims to characterize the taxonomy, functional profiling and seasonal patterns of viral DNA and RNA community structures using metagenomics and quantitative-PCR, for the purpose of establishing the virome distribution in aquatic environment’s receiving wastewater discharge. Environmental water samples were collected at 11 locations in Winnipeg, Manitoba along the Red and Assiniboine Rivers during the Spring, Summer and Fall 2021. Samples were filtered and underwent skimmed milk flocculation for viral concentration. The taxonomic classification of DNA viruses identified from the RefSeq database (available from MG-RAST) and Kraken 2 Viral Genome database were predominately DNA bacteriophages(Myoviridae, PodoviridaeandSiphoviridae) which accounted for approximately 90% of each aquatic sample location along the Red and Assiniboine Rivers. Phage related functionalities such as phage tail fiber proteins, phage replication, and phage packaging machinery accounted for 40% of each aquatic samples collected which possibly correspond to the DNA phages that were previously identified. RNA phages such asCystoviridaeandLeviviridaewere identified to a lesser extent accounting for approximately 3 % of each aquatic sample collected, while other viruses such asVirgaviridae, Retroviridae, PicobirnaviridaeandPartiviridaeaccounted for 7%–100% of aquatic samples. The functionalities of RNA viruses were primarily related to metabolic pathways such as potassium homeostasis, respiratory complexes and sialic acid metabolism, essential for RNA viruses to survive in their host.
