non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) are the most common pharmacological group that has three primary therapeutic effects including anti-inflammatory, anti-pyrexia, and analgesia. in this study, seven of nsaids were tested against two species of skin pathogenic fungi (dermatophytes). percentage inhibition was determined for effective agents. diclofenac, aspirin and naproxen showed muc...

Background: Dermatophytosis is a superficial (skin, hair and nails) fungal infection caused by dermatophyte group fungi (Trichophyton, Epidermophyton Microsporum). Immunocompromised conditions cause infections to become more widespread require consideration of therapy.

Introduction: The most common cutaneous fungal infections are caused by dermatophyte fungi such as Microsporum, Trichophyton, and Epidermophyton. In this study, the epidemiologic trends predominant organisms causing dermatophytosis in Urmia, Northwest Iran, were identified.Aims objectives: To get better perception of distribution authors studied identification isolated dermatophytes from human ...

A total of 95 isolates, belonging to 33 species of five dermatophyte genera, i.e. Arthroderma (15 species), Chrysosporium (two), Epidermophyton (one), Microsporum (three) and Trichophyton (12), were studied using internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2)-PCR-RFLP analysis (ITS2-RFLP), consisting of amplification of the ITS2 region, restriction digestion with BstUI (CG/CG) and restriction fragment le...

Antifungal activity of naftifinc (SN 105-843 gel) a napthyle alkyleamine derivative, was measured in vitro against freshly isolated cultures of dermatophytie fungi. Using appropriate concentrations of naftifine, its antifungal activity was compared with the same concentrations of griseofulvin against Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Trichophyton violaceum, Trichophyton tonsuran...
