    Author: Abdel-Gawad KM.
    Journal: J Basic Microbiol; 1989; 29(6):323-8. PubMed ID: 2482351.
    Abstract:
    The frequency of occurrence of fungi in 120 claw samples of buffalo and cow from different localities at Assiut governorate was determined. Thirty-seven species which belong to twenty genera were collected from the two substrates and the most common genera were Chrysosporium (eleven species of Chrysosporium were isolated). Aspergillus and Scopulariopsis. From the preceding genera Chrysosporium sulfureum was common on cow claws but C. merdarium was slightly dominant on buffalo claws than on cow claws. Aspergillus flavus and A. niger were dominant on buffalo claws, but Scopulariopsis brevicaulis was prevalent on cow claws. Also other dermatophytes were isolated such as Trichophyton terrestre, T. rubrum, Histoplasma capsulatum, Phialophora gougerotii and Microsporum distortum.
