P. brasiliensis morphology at 37°C after 2, 5, 10, and 15 days of incubation. Cultures were prepared with 0.01 ml of the fungus and 0.001 ml of lactophenol solution and observed by optical microscopy at ×400. (A) Yeast-mycelium transition of the Penguin P. brasiliensis isolate cultivated in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 2% glucose; (B) yeast morphology of the Pb10 P. brasiliensis isolate cultivated in MMH medium; (C) morphology of the Pb9 P. brasiliensis isolate cultivated in YPD medium (yeast positive control).
