Metadata analysis of the squalene epoxidase gene in dermatophytes.
Background:Squalene epoxidase gene is an azole antifungal target enzyme in the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway in fungi—the inhibition of enzyme aggregate squalene, a type of ergosterol derivative depletion that leads to fungal growth inhibition.

Evaluation of the heat sensitivity of Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton interdigitale
Onychomycosis affects up to 50% of patients in the older population.This study aimed to explore heat sensitivity of Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton interdigitale as pathogens of onychomycosis.The fungi were heated in sterile saline solution up to 100°C for five or 10 minutes with or without additional previous treatment with 1% ciclopirox solution

Previous reports (1, 2) have presented evidence that Microsporum cards and Microsporum gypseum possess keratinolytic activity on ethylene oxide sterilized wool and that several strains of Candida albicans do not possess such activity. In this report we present data indicating that Trichophyton schoenleini and Trichophyton ru-brum organisms possess ...
