1. Occurrence of dermatophytoses in patients from the Sistema Único de Saúde
Abstract: Background: Dermatophytosis is a cutaneous disease caused by filamentous keratinophilic fungi belonging to the genera Trichophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyton, which present a high prevalence in the general population, being among the most common mycoses affecting about 20% of the world's population. Objective: To carry out the epidemiologica

2. SIXTEEN YEARS OF DERMATOMYCOSIS CAUSED BY Candida spp. IN THE METROPOLITAN AREA OF PORTO ALEGRE, SOUTHERN BRAZIL
The yeasts of the genus Candida infect skin, nails, and mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal and the genitourinary tract. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of dermatomycoses caused by Candida spp., and their etiological aspects in the metropolitan area of Porto Alegre, Brazil. A retrospective study with data obtained from tertiary hos

3. Dermatophytes and other associated fungi in patients attending to some hospitals in Egypt
Dermatophytes are keratinophilic fungi that infect keratinized tissues causing diseases known as dermatophytoses. Dermatophytes are classified in three genera,
Epidermophyton, Microsporum, andTrichophyton . This investigation was performed to study the prevalence of dermatomycosis among 640 patients being evaluated at theBraz. J. Microbiol.. Publicado em: 2015-09

4. Antifungal activity and mechanism of action of monoterpenes against dermatophytes and yeasts
Dermatomycosis causes highly frequent dermal lesions, and volatile oils have been proven to be promising as antifungal agents. The antifungal activity of geraniol, nerol, citral, neral and geranial (monoterpenes), and terbinafine and anidulafungin (control drugs) against seven opportunistic pathogenic yeasts and four dermatophyte species was evaluated by the

5. A case of Tinea nigra associated to a bite from a European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus, Leporidae): the role of dermoscopy in diagnosis
We report a case of Tinea nigra in an adolescent living in Itapema, Santa Catarina, Brazil, who presented a hyperchromic macule on the palm of the left hand, close to another erythematous macule caused by a rabbit bite. The patient received guidance on accidents and animal bites and evolved well treated with topical butenafine for the dermatomycosis. The aut

6. Antimicrobial effects of allicin and ketoconazole on trichophyton rubrum under in vitro condition
Dermatophytosis is caused by a group of pathogenic fungi namely, dermatophytes, is among the most prevalent infectious diseases worldwide. Azole drugs are widely used in the treatment of dermatomycosis, but can cause various side effects and drug resistance to the patients. Hence, for solving this problem can be used from the plant extract as alternative for

7. Caracterização da resposta imunológica celular em pacientes portadores de dermatofitoses extensas causadas por Trichophyton rubrum / Characterization of the Cellular Immunity in Patients Presenting Extensive Dermatophytoses due to Trichophyton rubrum
Os dermatófitos são fungos que apresentam a capacidade de invadir o estrato córneo da pele e de outros tecidos queratinizados como os cabelos e as unhas. Esses fungos podem provocar infecções em qualquer local da pele, no entanto os pés, região inguinal, axilas, couro cabeludo e unhas são mais freqüentemente afetados. O Trichophyton rubrum é um fun

8. Fungos associados às onicomicoses : prevalência e suscetibilidade a drogas antifúngicas
INTRODUCTION: Onychomycosis is the nail infection caused by a wide spectrum of fungi species, including yeasts, dermatophyte and nondermatophyte mould. Due to the variable susceptibility of the several etiologic agents to the antifungal drugs, the laboratorial diagnosis is being considered an important tool to establish the etiology and to help in the choice

9. Diagnosis and management of cases of suspected dermatomycosis in The Netherlands: influence of general practice based potassium hydroxide testing.
BACKGROUND. Microscopy of a potassium hydroxide preparation of skin scrapings or nail clippings, although widely advocated as a test for dermatomycosis, is used in only a small proportion of cases. AIM. This study set out to investigate the effect of potassium hydroxide testing on the subjectively assessed probability that a dermatomycosis was present. METHO

10. Rapid Discrimination among Dermatophytes, Scytalidium spp., and Other Fungi with a PCR-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Ribotyping Method
Dermatomycoses are very common infections caused mainly by dermatophytes. Scytalidiosis is a differential mycological diagnosis, especially in tropical and subtropical areas. Since a culture-based diagnosis takes 2 to 3 weeks, we set up a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method for rapid discrimination of these fungi in clinical samples. T
