  • Title: An unusual variant of Trichophyton tonsurans var. sulfureum.
    Author: Padhye AA, Weitzman I, Domenech E.
    Journal: J Med Vet Mycol; 1994; 32(2):147-50. PubMed ID: 8064546.
    Abstract:
    A fungus, recovered from a skin lesion of a patient, produced velvety to powdery, white to deep yellow colonies on Sabouraud glucose agar. Microscopically, it produced a large number of cylindric, smooth-walled, three- to eight-celled macroconidia but failed to produce microconidia on a variety of nutritional media such as rice grains, cornmeal dextrose, potato dextrose, Sabouraud glucose, oatmeal and lactrimel agars. It hydrolysed urea in 7 days, perforated hair in vitro and required thiamine for growth. This isolate represents an atypical variant of Trichophyton tonsurans var. sufureum subvar. perforans.
