Physiological characterization and molecular identification of some rare yeast species causing onychomycosis.

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Onychomycosis are infections with a variety of etiological agents. Although dermatophytes are responsible for most infections, yeasts are gaining importance as agents of these pathologies. The use of antifungals has increased the incidence of what had been considered rare or novel pathogens. We reidentify three rare yeasts from a culture collection of onychomycosis agents by matrix-assisted laser...
