| Abstract: | The dermatophytic fungiTrichophyton spp andMicrosporum spp secrete ferrichrome type siderophores under low iron conditions. Three different species ofMicrosporum, i.e.M. qypseum, M. canis andM. audouinii, as well asT. rubrum produce ferrichrome C and ferricrocin, whereasT. mentagrophytes andT. tonsurans produce only ferrichrome. The identification of the siderophores was established by means of thin layer chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy. |
