Mucorales are ubiquitous, opportunistic airborne filamentous fungi (molds) that affect immunocompromised patients with impaired phagocyte function. As opposite to other fungal pathogens, Mucorales ...

Here the authors examine phagocyte recognition and show the defined molecular patterns on polymer-coated nanoparticles in different species are driven by ficolin and complement opsonisation.
