Comparison of inhibitory mold agar to Sabouraud dextrose agar as a primary medium for isolation of fungi.
Clinical specimens cultured on two selective fungal media, inhibitory mold agar (IMA) and Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA), were compared with respect to recovery of fungi. Of the 840 fungal isolates recovered, 69.3% grew on both IMA and SDA; 24.9% grew only on IMA; and 5.8% grew only on SDA, showing that IMA is superior (P=0.003).
متن کاملModulation of water activity on fungicide effect on Aspergillus niger growth in Sabouraud dextrose agar medium*.
AIMS To examine whether water activity (aw) in combination with low concentration of fungicides can be used to effectively control Aspergillus niger van Tieghem growth in cultural medium, the Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA). The data would be used as baseline information for reducing A. niger contamination in insect artificial diets. METHODS AND RESULTS Aspergillus niger was isolated from an in...
متن کاملComparison of Sabouraud dextrose and Pagano-Levin agar media for detection and isolation of yeasts from oral samples.
The sensitivities of Sabouraud dextrose agar and modified Pagano-Levin agar for the primary isolation of yeasts and the recovery of multiple yeast species from single clinical samples were compared by using oral-rinse samples. Although there was a highly significant positive correlation between the numbers of yeasts recovered from both media, modified Pagano-Levin agar was far superior in detec...
متن کاملModel systems for the study of dermatophyte and non-dermatophyte invasion of human keratin
Both dermatophyte and non-dermatophyte fungi can colonise and invade the keratin of skin, nail and hair. The fungal morphological forms that adhere to these keratinaceous substrates are most probably arthroconidia and hyphal fragments in association with exfoliated corneocytes. Towards a greater understanding of the ability of fungi to utilise keratin we have developed a series of experimetal m...
متن کاملEvaluation of Dermatophyte Identification Medium for Recovery of Keratinophillic Fungi from Clinical Samples
Dermatophyte test media (DTM) and Sabouraud's dextrose agar (SDA) are well established media for recovery of dermatophytes from clinical samples of dermatophytosis. Skin, hair and nail samples were mycologically examined from 112 patients attending Outpatient Clinic of Dermatology and Veneriology in Mansoura University Hospital in an attempt to compare dermatophyte identification media (DIM) wi...
