dermatophytosis of the external auditory meatus. | thirty-two cases of dermatophyte infection in the external auditory meatus are reported. all the patients complained of slight itching or accumulation of cerumen; however, they had no other serious complaints. otoscopy revealed lesions in the outer third of the ear canal. the skin of the meatus externus osseus and the surface of the tympanic membrane were all intact. in all cases, mycelial elements were demonstrated in koh mounts of scrapings, and trichophyton rubrum (29 cases), microsporum cani ... | 1986 | 3572682 |
epidemiology and clinical features of dermatomycoses and dermatophytoses. | dermatophytosis, candidosis and pityriasis versicolor account for the majority of fungal skin diseases in denmark and are seen in 8% of patients with dermato-venerological problems. in children, zoophilic species like microsporum canis (from cats), trichophyton (t) verrucosum (from cattle) and t. mentagrophytes granulare (from rodents) are the common causes of dermatophytosis and are seen in approximately 15% of all cases. anthropophilic species are the main cause of dermatophytosis in adults an ... | 1986 | 3459342 |

identification and serotyping of microsporum canis isolates by monoclonal antibodies. | hybridoma cells were produced by fusing mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from mice primed with an exoantigen of microsporum canis. three clones produced antibodies which were examined by the western blot technique for their potential usefulness in the identification of m. canis isolates and differentiation of strains within the species. based on reactions with immunological determinants, all of the m. canis isolates tested presented either species- or strain-specific domains. monoclonal ant ... | 1986 | 2420823 |
serotyping of fungal isolates by precipitating monoclonal antibodies. | ascites fluid from hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies to an exoantigen of microsporum canis was assayed for its precipitating properties. three types of monoclonal antibodies were used for serological analysis of heterologous mycelial cultures. based on specific antigenic determinants, the fungal strains showed different immunodiffusion reactivity within the species. the monoclonal antibodies also proved to be effective reagents for serotyping heterogeneous species. they may al ... | 1986 | 2425261 |
keratinolytic and keratinophilic fungi of children's sandpits in the city of turin. | soils rich in keratinic residues constitute a permanent or occasional reservoir for dermatophytes and keratinolytic and keratinophilic fungi, and are a source of potential infection for man and animals. the keratinolytic and keratinophilic mycoflora of 28 sandpits in turin was studied to evaluate the risk of fungal skin infections that is run by children as they play in public parks and to lay the ground-work for a next epidemiological study of soil- and animal-inhabiting dermatophytes found in ... | 1986 | 2429185 |
