Rapid Identification of Malassezia furfur from other Malassezia Species: A Major Causative Agent of Pityriasis Versicolor
The present study is designed to evaluate the application of a simple method for rapid identification of Malassezia furfur among other Malassezia spp. based on production of a brownish-red pigment and its diffusion into the medium containing L-tryptophan as a sigle source of nitrogen. 91 strains of Malassezia (20% M. furfur, 2% M. sympodialis, 5% M. obtosa and 73% M. globosa) isolated from ski...

متن کاملIdentification of Malassezia Species in Patients with Pityriasis Versicolor Submitted to the Razi Hospital in Tehran
Lipophilic yeast of the genus Malassezia (Pityrosporum) belongs to the normal flora of human skin and many warm-blooded animals. These fungi can produce a diverse range of diseases that the best known and most frequent of them is pityriasis versicolor, a chronic recurrent skin disease occurring primarily in tropical regions. The genus Malassezia has been recently enlarged to include seven disti...
متن کامل[Pityriasis versicolor and the yeasts of genus Malassezia].
Although pityriasis versicolor is the only human disease for which Malassezia yeasts have been fully established as pathogens, it is still not clear which species are implicated. Most studies carried out in recent years support our hypothesis - proposed in 1999 - that Malassezia globosa is the predominant species in pityriasis versicolor lesions, at least in temperate climates. Confirmation of ...
متن کاملPityriasis versicolor circinata: isolation of Malassezia sympodialis - Case report.
The authors report a case of pityriasis versicolor circinata whose isolated etiologic agent was Malassezia sympodialis in a 34-year-old woman. The isolation and identification of Malassezia sympodialis were accomplished with modified Dixon's agar, and the molecular method used to confirm the species was polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (PCR-RFLP).
