VOLLEKOVÁ A. (1992): Microscopic and cultural proof of Malassezia furfur in skin scales. Česká Mykologie 45(4): 164-171 (published: 21st May, 1992)
abstract
Microscopically (KOH with Parker ink) and semiquantitatively culturally ("ZOT" medium), 750 samples of skin scales from different areas of the body surface of 665 subjects (with or without dermatoses) were investigated for Malassezia furfur. This lipophilic yeast was isolated mostly from the capillitium, face and trunk (72–90% of samples). A total of 81.4% of samples were positive for M. furfur (65.6% microscopically and 73.5% culturally). In 57.7% of cases the yeast was observed by both methods. The average cultural detection was higher in samples with more microscopically visible blastoconidia. The results of M. furfur cultivation were influenced by several factors (e.g., subject preparation, timing of sample inoculation, cultivation conditions).
VOLLEKOVÁ A. (1990): Anixiopsis stercoraria - a rare agent of human dermatomycoses. Česká Mykologie 44(3): 147-151 (published: 22nd October, 1990)
abstract
Anixiopsis stercoraria, a keratinophilic ascomycete, is globally distributed in soils and has recently been sporadically recorded as a cause of human dermatomycoses. Lesions are clinically indistinguishable from dermatophytoses. Six strains isolated from patients with suspected dermatomycoses were examined; five were considered incidental findings. Morphological features and cleistothecia formation on various media are described.
VOLLEKOVÁ A. (1985): Keratinophilic fungi in rodents‘ burrows and in their adjoining surroundings. Česká Mykologie 39(2): 97-105 (published: 1985)
abstract
A group of 150 women suspected of mycotic colpitis was examined. Mycological cultures were positive in only 52%. False positives from routine microscopy were noted. Species of yeast, clinical symptoms, findings in oral cavity and rectum, and perianal lesions were reported. Mixed infections were discussed. Patients were treated with vaginal and oral Nystatin. Mycological negativity occurred in 43% of pregnant and 75% of non-pregnant women; complete cure in 24% and 33% respectively. After delivery, 78% of women recovered spontaneously without treatment.
