tinea capitis caused by microsporum praecox in a patient with sickle cell anaemia. | microsporum praecox rivalier ex padhye, ajello et mcginnis is the validated name for the taxon originally published as sabouraudites praecox rivalier. we describe here the first case of small-conidial, ectothrix type hair invasion caused by m. praecox in an adult woman from oklahoma, u.s.a., suffering from sickle cell anaemia. this fungus is now being encountered with greater frequency as an etiologic agent of ringworm infection. | 1989 | 2600736 |

immunological studies on dermatophytes. iv. chemical structures and serological reactivities of polysaccharides from microsporum praecox, trichophyton ferrugineum, trichophyton sabouraudii, and trichophyton tonsurans. | the chemical structures and serological specificities of polysaccharides isolated from four species of dermatophytes, microsporum praecox, trichophyton ferrugineum, t. sabouraudii, and t. tonsurans, were investigated. each of these species yielded a mixture of crude polysaccharides which could be separated into three water-soluble, neutral polysaccharides free of nitrogen. these were grouped as galactomannan i, galactomannan ii, and glucan. the galactomannans i were quite similar in chemical str ... | 1969 | 5764331 |
isolation of saprophytic microsporum praecox rivalier from sites associated with horses. | several m. praecox isolates of saprophytic origin were obtained in belgium from horses and their surroundings. visualization of macroconidia in dust collected in stables proved its saprophytic origin. a few strains were obtained from human cases of tinea corporis. | 1983 | 6685349 |
isolation in the united states of a culture resembling m. praecox. | a microsporum culture isolated in the united states, from a clinical case of tinea corporis, was noted to have microscopic features resembling rivalier's description of microsporum (sabouraudites) praecox (11). this unusual finding prompted further taxonomic studies, the results of which suggest that the new isolate may be either the first strain of microsporum praecox (or a variety thereof) to be isolated in north america or, possibly, a new species. | 1980 | 7374747 |
microsporum praecox: molecular identification of a new case and review of the literature. | we report a rare case of dermatophytosis due to microsporum praecox in a 28-year-old female horse rider. the skin lesion was located on the right external malleolus. microscopic examination of skin scrapings revealed a dermatophyte which was also isolated in culture. the identification of m. praecox was confirmed by molecular biology (sequence analysis of pcr products amplified from internal transcribed spacer regions with universal primers). combined antifungal therapy with oral terbinafine and ... | 2011 | 20658321 |
[tinea corporis due to the rare geophilic dermatophyte microsporum praecox]. | a 10-year-old girl suffered from tinea corporis with erythematosquamous and centrifugal growing, sparse itching lesions of her right lower arm. fluorescence optical blankophor® preparation from skin scrapings revealed fungal hyphae. on sabouraud's dextrose agar, the fast growing dermatophyte formed flat, peripheral radiating and convolved colonies with white, slightly yellowish to beige brown stained granular and powdery surface. the reverse side of the colonies was smooth with luminous yellow c ... | 2016 | 27586990 |
