Treatment of Primary Pulmonary Aspergillosis: An Assessment of the Evidence
Journal of Fungi, 2016 Aspergillus spp. are a group of filamentous molds that were first described due to a perceived similarity to an aspergillum, or liturgical device used to sprinkle holy water, when viewed under a microscope.
