Abstract
|
|
|
Stock cultures of Microsporum ferrugineum isolated from patients were cultured on 5 sorts of media in order to observe the colonial morphology macroscopically and mycelial elements microscopically, and these results were evaluated from the viewpoint of diagnostic value as well as mycological significance.
On blood base agar, arthrospore formation was a predominant character and this finding reflects the particular property of this medium on the formation of macroconidia among Trichopyton species. The colonies on the Wort agar were spreading type with a fluffy mycelia in appearance without any pigment formation in contrast to the heaped type and sparse mycelial formation on oxgall medium. On potato dextrose agar, colonial morphology was spreading type with a prominent unique pigment production of each strain. Non of these media exhibited particular aspects of micro or macroconidia other than diverse patterns of chlamydospore and arthrospore formation and these implies no special significance on the identification this fungus.
