Aspergillus terreus is relatively undocumented as an agent of this fungal infection. The aim of this work is to show the prevalence of onychomycosis caused by A. terreus and to describe its clinical features. Nail samples were collected for microscopic examination and culturing in selective media. ...
In her biogeographic study ofAspergillusspecies in soil and litter,Klich (2002a)found that five species ofAspergillusreported in over 100 studies wereA. fumigatus,A. versicolor,A. terreus,A. flavus, andA. nigervar. niger. With one exception, these five species occurred at the expected frequencie...
Aspergillus terreus produces another group of statins which has an extra methyl group attached on the dicyclohexene ring system. They are gaining importance as drugs for cancer treatment. There are reports of lower cancer incidence rates in patients administered with statins—lovastatin, mevastatin, ...
versicolor in 98, Penicillium chrysogenum in 94, Aspergillus terreus in 79, A. ochraceus in 66, Penicillium glabrum (= Penicillium frequentans) in 57, Aspergillus wentii in 56 and Penicillium funiculosum in 52 studies respectively. These species may adapt to 3 ecological conditions better than ...
These are environmental fungi which may behave as contaminants or colonisers of a previously damaged nail or pathogens. Several Aspergillus species have been isolated from nails, including A. fumigatus, A. flavus, A. terreus, A. sclerotiorum , and A. nidulans. These are not common conditions ...
