| the effect of microbial mycolytic agents on trichophyton rubrum. | chitinolytic microorganisms isolated from forest soil and from healthy gypsy moth larvae (porthetria dispar (l.) were screened for their ability to lyse trichophyton rubrum mycelia. a few of these isolates were mycolytic on both autoclaved and on actively growing, intact, t. rubrum mycelia. supernatants from these isolates, utilizing live t. rubrum as the sole carbon source, showed the same mycolytic ability. assays of the supernatants for enzymatic activity revealed exocellular, stable enzymes ... | 1975 | 1677 |

| enzyme release by trichophyton rubrum depends on nutritional conditions. | enzymes liberated by growing dermatophytes are of pathogenetic importance in tinea. to investigate the influence of nutrients on this enzyme release, trichophyton rubrum was grown in media containing peptone, keratin and lipids, to which glucose was added in separate assays. the culture supernatants were compared for extracellular enzyme activities by use of the api-zym test. our results clearly show that the extracellular enzyme activity is dependent on the nutrients supplied. seven different e ... | 1991 | 1726475 |
| dermatophytosis in children and adolescents: epidemiological, clinical, and microbiological aspects changing with age. | during a four year period, a total of 84 cases of dermatophytosis were seen in patients from 0 to 17 years of age attending our out-patient department. the sex distribution was about equal in preadolescents. males predominated among adolescents. a peak incidence at early school age was due to cases of tinea capitis, mainly caused by microsporum canis. a peak among adolescents was due to cases of tinea pedis, mainly caused by trichophyton rubrum. in general, patients with trichophyton rubrum infe ... | 1991 | 1761791 |

| tinea pedis in children. | tinea pedis is a superficial mycosis, unusual in children. epidemiological and clinical data regarding cases of tinea pedis observed in children over a period of 20 years are discussed and some explanation given for the conditions which predisposed children to the infection. clinical features are variable and similar to adults. bullous lesions are more frequently seen in children. most of the cases were seen in children over 10 years of age. males are more often affected with tinea pedis: this i ... | 1991 | 1795727 |
| prevalence of superficial mycoses in the aosta valley region of italy from 1984 to 1989. | this report represents the results of the culture tests for fungi carried out in the aosta valley region of italy from 1984 to 1989. the pathological material consisted of cutaneous scales, hair and nails. it was possible to identify 91.8% of the isolates: out of these, 36.1% were dermatophytes, 21% were aspergillus spp, 15.6% deuteromycetes, 15% yeasts and 4.1% members of the family mucoraceae. the resulting data indicate that microsporum canis was the most wide-spread species (73.7%) among the ... | 1991 | 1795730 |
| [shifts in the species spectrum of mycoses in the netherlands from 1970-1990]. | a review is presented of yeast and mould infections occurring in humans in the netherlands. the occurrence of the dermatophytes trichophyton rubrum and t. mentagrophytes tends to increase, while microsporum canis and particularly epidermophyton floccosum have become less common. the yeast candida glabrata is particularly often involved in infections of the urinary tract. candida krusei, c. parapsilosis and c. tropicalis have become less significant. remarkable differences are found between the s ... | 1992 | 1557162 |
| pigment formation by trichophyton rubrum: differentiation between t. rubrum and t. mentagrophytes on serum albumin agar (author's transl). | on serum albumin agar (bovine albumin) with initial ph-values of 5.0-6.0, trichophyton rubrum showed a yellow pigmentation, and on the same medium with an initial ph-value of 7.0, a red pigmentation. strains of trichophyton mentagrophytes have never shown pigmentation until now, the scarce growth (submerged) of t. rubrum on serum albumin agar is associated with a pigment formation that may be used for diagnostic purposes. it could be read within 3-7 days. serum albumin agar with the initial ph-v ... | 1977 | 15390 |
| clinico-microbiological study of dermatophytoses. | in the present series, 80 cases of dermatophytoses were subjected to mycological examination including microscopy and culture the mycological findings were correlated with clinical presentation of the patients. the isolation rate was 62.5 percent. fungal culture was successful in 36.25 percent of cases, trichophyton rubrum being the commonest etiological agent accounting for 55.18 percent of cases. | 1991 | 1818854 |

| tinea cruris: diagnostic confusion due to isolation of candida albicans alone. | the diagnostic importance of the isolation of candida albicans from a skin lesion is often uncertain. in a 68-year-old man from whose lesions only c. albicans was originally isolated trichophyton rubrum and epidermophyton floccosum were also isolated when the growth of the yeast was inhibited in a selective medium. the use of this selective medium, casamino acids erythritol albumin agar, ensures the proper interpretation of the significance of the presence of c. albicans in skin lesions. | 1976 | 773524 |
