| [molecular epidemiology of japanese isolates of arthroderma benhamiae by polymorphisms of non-transcribed spacer region of the ribosomal dna]. | we made a molecular epidemiological study of arthroderma benhamiae, a teleomorphic species of the trichophyton mentagrophytes complex, using polymorphisms of the non-transcribed spacer region (nts) of ribosomal dna. thirteen isolates -hyogo 2 isolates, saitama 2 isolates, shimane 2 isolates, tokyo 1 isolate, nagasaki 4 isolates- were isolated from dermatophytoses lesions on pet animals and/or their owners, while 2 gifu isolates were cultured from lesions on the face and hand of a pet shop worker ... | 2002 | 11865294 |
