Samples were collected from 305 patients and a portion of each sample was examined microscopically and the remaining portion was cultured on to plates of ...
متن کاملAntibiotic production by dermatophyte fungi.
Thirty-two clinical isolates of anthropophlic dermatophytes were examined for their capacity to produce antibiotics in liquid culture and on human stratum corneum in vitro. Antibiotics were detected and classified using agar diffusion bioassays and chromatographic analysis. Twenty-four isolates produced antibiotic substances in liquid culture filtrates; some strains produced more than one antib...
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 کاملPrevalence of Dermatophyte Infection in District Rajkot
Dermatophytosis is common in superficial fungal infection of keratinized tissues. Although common, the precise size of the problem defies measurement. To access the clinicoepidemiological profile of dermatophyte infection. To identify the species of fungus and to compare the clinical diagnosis by KOH smear and culture. Two hundred clinically suspected cases of dermatophytosis were subjected to ...
متن کاملUnrecognized dermatophyte infection in ichthyosis vulgaris.
