Defence Mechanism against Dermatophytes in Experimental Dermatophytosis.

Immunology of dermatophytes and dermatophytosis.

Period Based Defence Mechanism against Data flooding attacks

There is a wide usage of mobiles anywhere and anytime to access the multimedia data. Thus there will be more oppurtunity for wireless adhoc networks. Because, comparing with the wired networks, wireless networks provides low cost and easy accesibility. But the main disadvantage for Consumer electronic devices were generally operate on limited battery power and therfore are vulnerable to securit...

Antifungal activity of plant extracts against dermatophytes.

The aqueous extracts (15 micrograms ml-1 medium) of 22 plants used in folkloric medicine in Palestine were investigated for their antifungal activity and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against nine isolates of Microsporum canis, Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton violaceum. The extract of the different plant species reduced colony growth of the three dermatophytes by 36 to 1...

Cassia tora against dermatophytes of infected soil

Fungal activity of the essential oil extracted from Cassia tora (Fabaceae) was studied against dermatophytic fungi like Microsporum gypseum. Study of dermatophytes in soil samples collected from Jaipur, was carried out but only 88% samples contained dermatophytic fungi. In screening of the essential oil of Cassia tora the diameter of inhibition zone was found to be 19 mm for Microsporum gypseum...

Chemotherapeutic activity of myxin in experimental dermatophytosis of guinea pigs.

Recently, some in vitro and in vivo chemotherapeutic properties of myxin (6-methoxy-1phenazinol 5,10 dioxide) (E. Grunberg et al., Chemotherapia 12:272, 1967) have been reported. Concurrent with these studies, we have found myxin active as a topical agent in triamcinolone acetonide-mediated Trichophyton mentagrophytes infection in guinea pigs. The method of infecting the animals was essentially...
