摘要: The keratin degradation capability of some non-dermatophytic filamentous fungi, viz Scytalidium dimidiatum types A and B, S. hyalinum, japonicum Fusarium solani, was investigated using nail clippings powder as substrates. Representative isolates the dermatophytes Trichophyton rubrum T. mentagrophytes were also tested. two morphological almost equally effective in substrates, 42-43% 24-26% keratin. hyalinum degraded 40% 38% respectively. Degradation insignificant. In case F. 43% 20%. caused much higher (70-73%) (42-52%).
