1. Onychomycosis due to opportunistic molds
Abstract BACKGROUND: Onychomycosis are caused by dermatophytes and Candida, but rarely by non- dermatophyte molds. These opportunistic agents are filamentous fungi found as soil and plant pathogens. OBJECTIVES: To determine the frequency of opportunistic molds in onychomycosis. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 4,220 cases with onychomycosis, diagnosed in

2. Fungal microbiota isolated from healthy pig skin / Microbiota fúngica isolada da pele de suínos sadios
Background: Researches have been developed to observe the normal microbiota of different animal species. This subject is of major importance for the control of potential infection risks. Fungi can be found in various substrates, foodstuffs (cereals, meat, milk, vegetables) and also in the skin, mucosae, respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts of animals. Wit

3. A case of fungal keratitis caused by Scopulariopsis brevicaulis: treatment with antifungal agents and penetrating keratoplasty.
A case of fungal keratitis caused by Scopulariopsis brevicaulis following a penetrating eye injury is described. Treatment with antifungal agents and keratoplasty resulted in a favourable outcome.

4. Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, a Fungal Pathogen Resistant to Broad-Spectrum Antifungal Agents
The antifungal susceptibility results for 32 clinical isolates of Scopulariopsis brevicaulis are presented. Flucytosine and itraconazole were inactive in vitro, and MICs of amphotericin B, voriconazole, and terbinafine for all isolates were high, with geometric means of 13, 25.8, and 14.4 μg/ml, respectively.

5. Scopulariopsis endocarditis associated with Duran ring valvuloplasty.
Fungal endocarditis is rare and is usually caused by Aspergillus and Candida species. We present a patient with endocarditis caused by Scopulariopsis brevicaulis. The patient had a history of mitral valve disease and, 1 year earlier, had undergone valvuloplasty with the placement of a prosthetic Duran ring in the mitral valve position. S. brevicaulis was cul

7. Scedosporium inflatum, an emerging pathogen.
The salient morphologic and physiologic characteristics of 18 isolates of Scedosporium inflatum, a newly reported human pathogen, were compared with those of the morphologically similar fungi Scedosporium apiospermum, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, and Scopulariopsis brumptii. The formation by S. inflatum of annelloconidia in wet clumps at the apices of annelli

8. Internal and External Mycoflora of the American Dog Tick, Dermacentor variabilis (Acari: Ixodidae), and Its Ecological Implications
Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, the anamorph of Microascus brevicaulis (Microascaceae, Ascomycota), has been identified in the body contents of the tick Dermacentor variabilis. After topical application of the fungal inoculum, tick mortality was marked. This is the first account describing the internal mycoflora of D. variabilis with a novel technique used to re

9. Comparison of E-Test and Broth Microdilution Methods for Antifungal Drug Susceptibility Testing of Molds
We compared the E test with a broth microdilution method, performed according to National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards document M27-A guidelines, for determining the in vitro susceptibilities of 90 isolates of pathogenic molds (10 Absidia corymbifera, 10 Aspergillus flavus, 10 Aspergillus fumigatus, 10 Aspergillus niger, 10 Aspergillus terreus

10. In Vitro Activity of Syn-2869, a Novel Triazole Agent, against Emerging and Less Common Mold Pathogens
The in vitro activity of Syn-2869 was compared with that of amphotericin B and itraconazole. MICs for 100 isolates of pathogenic molds belonging to 12 species were determined by a broth microdilution adaptation of the method recommended by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards. Syn-2869 and itraconazole showed comparable, good activity aga

11. Deep scopulariopsosis: A case report and sensitivity studies
A 36-year-old female was admitted to hospital for debridement of chronically inflamed tendon sheaths and adjacent tissues near the left ankle. Despite antibiotic therapy and initial surgical interventions, the inflammation had progressed slowly over 16 months. Histopathological examination of excised tissues in September 1973 revealed a chronic granulomatous
