摘要: The floors of indoor swimming pools are contaminated by yeasts, dermatophytes and other saprophytic species. Previous epidemiological studies have revealed that the fungi persist even after cleaning. Three disinfectants were tested in vitro against standard isolated from pool floors. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests AFNOR T72-201 carried out. Adilon Decalcite, commonly used pools, ineffective most fungi, while Nobactel, recommended elsewhere, was particularly effective studied fungi. In addition to necessary technical modifications methods, this study highlights need choose antifungal compounds alternate cleaning products minimize acquired resistance.
