ΑΝΑΖΗΤΗΣΗ ΚΕΡΑΤΙΝΟΦΙΛΩΝ ΜΥΚΗΤΩΝ ΚΑΙ CANDIDA ΣΕ ΑΘΛΗΤΙΚΟΥΣ ΧΩΡΟΥΣ

Abstract

THE PATHOGENIC AND SAPROPHYTIC FUNGI HAVE BEEN, SINCE SEVERAL YEARS AGO, SUBJECT OF MANY STUDIES. THIS IS DUE TO THE INCREASE OF MYCOSIS FREQUENCY, NOT ONLYBY THE KNOWN PATHOGENIC SPECIES BUT ALSO BY SAPROPHYTES OF THE ENVIRONMENT ESPECIALLY OF THE SOIL AND THE AIR. THE SOIL FUNGI OFTEN PRODUCE SKIN MYCOSIS, MOSTLY WHEN THE SKIN COMES IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE SPORE INFECTED ENVIRONMENT. IN THE PRESENT STUDY WE DECIDED TO SEARCH PATHOGENIC AND OPPORTUNISTIC FUNGI, AND MAINLY DERMATOPHYTES AND CANDIDA IN ATHLETIC INSTALLATIONS IN WHICH ATHLETES OFTEN COME IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THEM. (SHORTENED)

ΜΕ ΤΗΝ ΜΕΘΟΔΟ ΤΗΣ ΚΟΚΕΤΑΣ ΚΑΙ ΤΗΣ ΜΕΘΟΔΟΥ HAIR BOUTING ΑΠΟΜΟΝΩΘΗΚΑΝ ΑΠΟ ΔΑΠΕΔΑΝΤΟΥΣ ΣΤΑΔΙΩΝ, ΑΠΟΔΗΤΗΡΩΝ ΚΑΙ ΧΩΜΑ ΓΗΠΕΔΩΝ ΖΥΜΟΜΥΚΗΤΕΣ ΤΟΥ ΓΕΝΟΥΣ CANDIDA ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΦΙΛΟΙ, ΓΕΩΦΙΛΟΙ ΚΑΙ ΖΩΟΦΙΛΟΙ ΜΥΚΗΤΕΣ. ΣΥΧΝΟΤΕΡΑ ΑΠΟΜΟΝΩΘΗΚΑΝ Η C. ALBICANSΤΟ T. MENTAGROPHYTES ΚΑΙ GYPSEUM.
