Malassezia-Associated Skin Diseases, the Use of Diagnostics and Treatment
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Yeasts of the genus, Malassezia, formerly known as Pityrosporum, are lipophilic yeasts, which are a part of the normal skin flora (microbiome). Malassezia colonize the human skin after birth and must therefore, as commensals, be normally tolerated by the
