| [reported frequency of dermatophytes in cats and dogs in austria]. | during four years (1988-1991) 384 skin scrapings and hair samples obtained from cats and 636 samples obtained from dogs in austria were examined routinely for dermatophytes. in cats dermatophytes were isolated or found positive in unstained koh preparation in 50.3% of the samples. 90.7% of these cats were proved to be infected with microsporum canis. trichophyton mentagrophytes was isolated in 5.2% and trichophyton spp. in 2.1% of the positive samples. in dogs dermatophytes were isolated from 12 ... | 1993 | 8306866 |

| evaluation of the dermatophyte test medium rapidvet-d. | the performance of the dermatophyte test medium (dtm) rapidvet-d was assessed using hair samples collected from experimentally infected guinea pigs. three dermatophyte species were included in the study: microsporum canis, trichophyton mentagrophytes and trichophyton equinum. dtm substrates were inoculated with infected hairs and scales, incubated at 18, 21, 24, 27 or 37 degrees c and examined daily for 15 days. the rapidity of colour change was clearly related to the incubation temperature and ... | 2001 | 11420927 |
| phenotypic characterization of microsporum canis isolated from cats and dogs. | to characterize strains of microsporum canis that infect dogs and cats in são paulo city, 30 isolates of this dermatophyte were tested for their ability to assimilate carbon and nitrogen sources, for proteinase and phospholipase secretion, for susceptibility to yeast killer toxins, and for susceptibility to the antifungals fluconazole, ketoconazole, itraconazole, 5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin b, in e test. all samples assimilated the nitrogen sources asparagine, ammonium sulphate, urea and s ... | 2001 | 11820261 |
| dermatophytes isolated from domestic animals in iran. | between 1994 and 1998, a total of 790 feather, hair and skin specimens from a variety of animals with suspected dermatophytoses were studied, of which 248 (31.4%) yielded dermatophytes. the most frequent dermatophytes isolated were microsporum canis (38.3%), trichophyton verrucosum (31.8%), t. mentagrophytes (13.3%) and m. gypseum (7.7%). there was a significantly higher proportion of positive cultures from cats (54.8%) than dogs (8.2%), and m. canis was the most common species isolated (87.2 an ... | 2003 | 12801367 |
| [tinea capitis et corporis due to microsporum canis in an immunocompromised female adults patient]. | tinea capitis as well as tinea corporis in adults may occur under conditions of immunosuppression. if suspected clinically, direct microscopy and examination by culture is indispensable. therapeutic intervention should start without delay. a proven fungal infection of scalp hairs warrants immediate initiation of systemic treatment. hereby prevention of disfiguring hair loss, permanent formation of scar tissue, spread of fungal organisms to other cutaneous regions as well as infection of other pe ... | 2003 | 12955848 |
| generalized microsporum canis dermatophytosis in six yorkshire terrier dogs. | six yorkshire terrier dogs with generalized, chronic dermatophytosis caused by microsporum canis were seen over a 3-year period. specific tests showed that they also had concurrent leishmaniosis (four cases), leishmaniosis and ehrlichiosis (one case) or diabetes mellitus (one case). although specific therapy for these infectious diseases was instituted and the dogs were treated systemically and topically with appropriate antifungal drugs, only partial clinical resolution of the dermatophytosis w ... | 2004 | 15214955 |
| the epidemiology of canine and feline dermatophytoses in southern italy. | a total of 424 animals (268 dogs and 156 cats) with skin lesions (alopecia and peripheral scaling) were examined from january 1999 to december 2002. of the 424 samples examined, 99 (23.3%) yielded a positive culture and, in particular, 20.5% of the dog samples and 28.2% of the cat samples. microsporum canis was the most common dermatophyte isolated from dogs and cats (77.7%), followed by geophilic dermatophyte species (m. gypseum, trichophyton terrestre). young dogs and cats, especially those yo ... | 2004 | 15601458 |
| antifungal susceptibility and genotypical pattern of microsporum canis strains. | dermatophytes are a group of fungi that are capable of invading keratinized tissues of humans and other animals. antifungal susceptibility analysis and genetic studies by random amplification of polymorphic dna (rapd), have been used to detect polymorphism as well as determining the possible resistance of dermatophytes to antifungals. the aim of this study was to evaluate the possible correlation between the antifungal susceptibility and genotypical pattern of microsporum canis strains isolated ... | 2005 | 16121230 |
| canine dermatophytosis caused by an anthropophilic species: molecular and phenotypical characterization of trichophyton tonsurans. | microsporum canis is the most common species isolated from canine and feline dermatophytosis in the world. however, this study reports a rare case of canine dermatophytosis caused by the anthropophilic dermatophyte trichophyton tonsurans in the city of fortaleza, ceará, brazil. the fungal characterization was performed by classical mycological examination and by genotypical analysis using the restriction enzymes sau3a, rsai, ddei and ecori. the phenotypical characteristics were compatible with t ... | 2006 | 17030920 |
| frequency of yeasts and dermatophytes from healthy and diseased dogs. | the aim of this study was to investigate the presence of dermatophytes and yeasts in healthy and diseased dogs. a total of 633 samples were collected from 26 healthy animals (104 samples), 131 with dermatitis (343 samples), 74 with otitis (148 samples), and 19 with ocular diseases (38 samples). cultures from healthy animals were positive for malassezia pachydermatis in 13.5% (7/52) of samples from skin, 42.3% (11/26) from ear, and 3.8% (1/26) from eye. fungal growth was observed in 20.4% (70/343 ... | 2008 | 18319432 |
