Molecular Characterisation and Phylogenetic Analysis of Dermatophytic Fungi Isolated from Tinea Capitis in Northwest Nigeria Using Sequence of the 28S rRNA

open access: yesMicrobiology Research, 2021
The detection and identification of fungal DNA from clinical samples is one of the fundamental approaches in biomedicine. The incidence, distribution, and control of dermatophytes has progress significantly and the use of phylogenetic species concepts ...

Trichophyton indotineae: Epidemiology, antifungal resistance and antifungal stewardship strategies

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
There is a concerning trend of widespread and severe superficial fungal infections caused by a new pathogen—Trichophyton indotineae—resistant to standard antifungal therapies. T. indotineae is now spreading globally and evolving. There is increasing urgency for healthcare providers and policy makers to initiate surveillance systems and antifungal ...

Sophorolipid Biosurfactant Can Control Cutaneous Dermatophytosis Caused by Trichophyton mentagrophytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Trichophyton mentagrophytes, a zoophilic species, is one of the most frequently isolated dermatophytes in many parts of the world. This study investigated the efficacy of a sophorolipid (SL-YS3) produced by Rhodotorula babjevae YS3 against ...

Presumed Trichophyton indotineae Infection in Children: A Call for Heightened Clinical Awareness

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trichophyton indotineae is a fungus that is often antifungal‐resistant and presents with exuberant infection. It has been increasingly reported across the world, posing significant diagnostic challenges. We describe a case of a toddler with a history of travel to Bangladesh, presenting with persistent annular scaling plaques of dermatophytosis

Emerging Terbinafine Resistance in Trichophyton: Clinical Characteristics, Squalene Epoxidase Gene Mutations, and a Reliable EUCAST Method for Detection

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
In recent years, cases involving terbinafine-resistant Trichophyton isolates have been reported increasingly, particularly in India. We present 14 cases of terbinafine treatment failure in Trichophyton-infected Danish patients due to acquired resistance.

Indian Trichophyton mentagrophytes squalene epoxidase erg1 double mutants show high proportion of combined fluconazole and terbinafine resistance

open access: yesMycoses (Berlin), 2020
The Indian ITS genotype VIII Trichophyton mentagrophytes population shows a high amount of different erg1 (ergosterol) mutants encoding for squalene epoxidase, which catalyses the first step of ergosterol biosynthesis.

Antibacterial and Antifungal Activities of Musa balbisiana Parts

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
The antibacterial and antimould activities of Musa balbisiana parts were concentration‐dependent. Seed sample indicated the highest ability to have both studied bioactive properties among the six selected parts. M. balbisiana parts pose potential antibacterial via two antibacterial activity assays of (MIC and MBC) on four investigated bacteria ...

Epidemiology of Dermatophytoses in Switzerland According to a Survey of Dermatophytes Isolated in Lausanne between 2001 and 2018

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Dermatophytes are the most common pathogenic agents of superficial mycoses in humans and animals. Knowledge of their epidemiology can facilitate the prevention of dermatophytosis and improve prophylactic measures.

Rapid detection of terbinafine resistance in Trichophyton species by Amplified refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Dermatophytosis has gained interest in India due to rise in terbinafine resistance and difficulty in management of recalcitrant disease. The terbinafine resistance in dermatophytes is attributed to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in squalene ...
