    Author: Moharram AM, Bagy MM, Abdel-Mallek AY.
    Journal: J Basic Microbiol; 1987; 27(7):361-7. PubMed ID: 3130473.
    Abstract:
    Forty-four samples collected from animal and bird pens were screened for their content of saprophytic fungi by using the dilution plate method. 76 species in addition to one variety of Aspergillus flavus belonging to 33 genera were recovered on three types of media: 20 genera and 49 species on Littman-oxgall agar, 19 genera and 41 species on cellulose- and 19 genera and 43 species on glucose-Czapek's agar. The most frequent genera were Aspergillus (21 species), Scopulariopsis (4 species) and Penicillium (10 species). Among the isolated fungi A. fumigatus, A. flavus, A. terreus, A. niger, A. sydowi, A. nidulans, S. brevicaulis, S. brumptii, P. chrysogenum and P. funiculosum were the most common species.
