Feathers from 4 different birds were taken as substrate to find out the role of natural fatty material during the process of saprophytic colonization by some keratinophilic fungi. In the present investigation three fungi i.e., Keratinophyton terreum, Microsporum gypseum and Malbranchea aurantiaca were taken as test fungi. It is concluded that the presence of natural fatty materials on feathers have inhibitory effect on their colonization by some of the test organisms. Zusammenfassung: Für die Prüfung, welche Rolle das natürliche Fettmaterial an Federn für die saprophytische Besiedlung durch keratinophile Pilze spielt, wurden Federn von 4 verschiedenen Vogelarten untersucht. Als Pilze wurden eingesetzt: Keratinophyton terreum, Microsporum gypseum und Malbranchea aurantiaca. Es wird der Schluß gezogen, daß die Gegenwart von natürlichen Fetten auf den Federn einen Hemmeffekt auf einige der Testpilze hat.

The ability to degrade human hair by chrgsosponum crassitunicatum, Chrysosporium tropicam, Malbranchea aumntiaca, Wchophyton rubnun and lkichophyton temstre was determined by anatysing pmtem and sulphydryl group in culture fluid. The data showed that among the test organisms Trichophyton terrestre is a strong keratinolytic fungus, while Malbranchea aarantiaca was fonnd to be the poorest m this respect. Zusammenfassung: Durch Bestimmung von Protein- und Sulfhydryl-Gmppen im Nährmedium wurde bei folgenden Wzen die Fäeit aun Abbau menschlichen Haares beslimmt: Chrysosponum cmdnnkatum, chrysosponm tropicam, Malbranchea aurantiaca, Trichophyton rubrum und Trihophyton ternstre. Es zeigte sich, das lkichophyton ternstre und Malbranchea aurantiaca die dwlchsten kemtinoiyfischen Eigenschaften besaß.

We report the case of a patient suffering from subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis caused by Cladophialophora bantiana. The face of the upper site was involved with small, stellate, pyogranulomatous foci and low inflammation. The patient was treated by topical and systemic corticosteriod and amphotericin B. After 3 months of treatment, the patient showed good response. Es wird eine subkutane Phaeohyphomykose, verursacht durch Cladophialophora bantiana bei einer 45-jährigen Frau vorgestellt, die im Gesicht kleine, sternförmige, eitrig-granulomatöse Herde mit geringer Entzündungreaktion aufwies. Sie wurde topisch und systemisch mit Corticoiden und Amphotericin B behandelt mit gutem Erfolg nach drei Monaten.

Onychomycosis is a frequent cause of nail disease' A case of both hand finger nail infection by Candida aLbicans is described. The affected nails developed painful, reddened swelling subungual hyperkeratosis, onycholysis and yellowish to brownish discolouration. The presence of C' albicans was confirmed by germ tube production test and ch lamydospore formation.

... Chrysosporium species have also been recovered from hair coats of rodents111213, laboratory and domestic animals [14], and foxes [15], from wool [16], feathers of migrant birds [17], wild birds and domestic fowl [18] and from hooves and horns of goats and sheep [19]. Over the last two decades many new Chrysosporium species have been reported202122. The capacity of C. tropicum to utilize keratin has been proven by Deshmukh and Agarwal [23] by showing loss of dry matter in culture substrates. ...

... We measured macroconidia that perhaps in nature would have more difficulty being phagocytosed by soil amoebae. 44 It is known that in the parasitic phase, dermatophytes produce arthroconidia, 45 but this form was not isolated in culture. The mealworm, as T. molitor is known, is also an invertebrate animal model to study fungal virulence. ...

... The prognosis of cerebral phaeohyphomycosis is poor, regardless of aggressive surgical and medical treatment (8). C. bantiana has also been involved in (sub)cutaneous infections (11)(12)(13) and in a joint infection (14) in humans. The exact route of infection in systemic and/or cerebral phaeohyphomycosis is not well understood, but proposed routes include inhalation of conidia and subsequent hematogenous spread of the organism or nasal invasion (9). ...
