studies on the biological effects of deuteriated organic compounds. i. antifungal activity of perdeuteriated fatty acids on dermatophytes in vitro.the antifugal activity of some perdeuteriated fatty acids, with normal chain 11 to 18 carbon atoms, was investigated on common dermatophytes epidermophyton floccosum, microsporum canis, trichophyton mentagrophytes and t. rubrum under in vitro conditions. these studies were performed by dilution technique and with respiratory measurements, perdeuteriation of some fatty acids increases their inhibitory effect on the dermatophyte growth. perdeuteriated n-hendecanoic acid proved to be the most activ ...1976967223
tolciclate against dermatophytes.0-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,4-methanonaphthalen-6-yl)-m-n-dimethylthiocarbanilate (toliciclate; kc 9147) is a new topical antimycotic having an in vitro activity on dermatophytes between 0.1 and 0.01 mug/ml. it is fungicidal after some day's contact. it has the advantage over dyes used in the past for topical treatment of dermatomycoses in that it is colourless and is soluble in well tolerated excipients. it is more liposoluble than tolnaftate. in the guineapig skin infections with trichophyton aste ...1976989349
clinical evaluation of clotrimazole. a broad-spectrum antifungal agent.the efficacy and safety of the broad-spectrum, topically applied antifungal agent clotrimazole were evaluated in two double-blind, multicentric trials. ten investigators reported on a total of 1,361 cases in which a 1% solution or a 1% cream formulation was compared with its respective vehicle. clotrimazole was therapeutically effective, as confirmed by mycological cure (negative microscopy and culture) and clinical improvement, in tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea corporis, pityriasis versicolor ...1976769697
lymphocyte transformation in vitro in dermatophytosis.peripheral blood lymphocytes from 59 patients with dermatophytosis and from nine young healthy women were studied by the lymphocyte transformation test (lt) using mitogens and bacterial as well as fungal antigens. the latter included candida albicans (ca) and four dermatophyte species, viz. trichophyton rubrum (tr), trichophyton mentagrophytes (tm), epidermophyton floccosum (ef) and microsporum canis (mf). most of the patients showed normal transformation in response to mitogens and non-dermatop ...1976793301
isolation of dermatophytes, candida species and systemic fungi from dermatologic specimens in montréal, 1963 to 1973.of 10 057 specimens of scrapings from skin, nails and scalp examined for dermatophytes, yeasts, pityriasis versicolor and systemic mycoses between 1963 and 1973, 30.4 percent were positive for fungi. skin produced the highest proportion (68.6 percent) of positive scrapings, scalp the lowest (4.2 percent). trichophyton rubrum was the predominant species (23.6 percent); of lesser prevalence were microsporum canis (9.3 percent), t. mentagrophytes (8.4 percent) and epidermophyton floccosum (4.8 perc ...19751091342
antidermatophytic activity of 2-thiotetrahydro-1,3,5-thiadiazines and isothiocyanates.benzyl, furfuryl, tetrahydronaphthyl, alpha-picolyl, and alpha-homopicolyl derivatives of 2-thiotetrahydro-1,3,5-thiadiazines were studied and found to be more active than beta-picolyl, and pyridyl analogs on dermatophytes, including the more resistant microsporum canis.19751094101
isolation of chrysophanic acid-9-anthrone, the major antifungal principle of cassia tora.an antifungal principle of defatted seed power of cassia tora linn. was isolated by extraction of an aqueous paste of the powder with benzene, followed by column chromatography over activated silica gel c using chloroform as the developing solvent. besides chrysophanic acid and other hydroxyanthraquinone derivatives, the major antifungal compound was identified as chrysophanic acid-9-anthrone, the structure of which was assigned on the basis of its chemical properties and uv, ir, nmr and mass sp ...19751143018
