Allergy and Dermatophytes [PDF]
SUMMARYTinea pedis (athlete's foot) and onychomycosis (infection of the toenails) caused by the dermatophyte fungusTrichophytonare highly prevalent in adults. SeveralTrichophytonallergens have been identified based on elicitation of immunoglobulin E antibody-mediated immediate-hypersensitivity (IH) responses.

Fungal volatile fingerprints: discrimination between dermatophyte species and strains by means of an electronic nose. [PDF]
The potential of an electronic nose (e-nose) consisting of a hybrid gas sensor array system has been examined for species discrimination and strain identification of dermatophytes which are causative pathogens for human and animal infection.
