    AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINES AND THEIR DERMATOPHYTES (1977)

    Notes: In Australia, ringworm is common among Aborigines and, to a lesser extent, among other ethnic groups.So far, the dermatophytes generally responsible for ringworm in the Australian Aborigines show interesting differences from those usually isolated from other races in Australia. The main example are: Trichophyton tonsurans and T. violaceum: and, granuler variant of T. rubrum and a type of M. canis both of which were described by the authors.With a few notable exceptions, ringworm in the Australian Aborigines has attracted little medical interest or scientific attention. For example, Foelsche, a police inspector, wrole about ringworm affecting Northern Territory Aborigines in 1882. The dermalophyte responsible was not defined and described until 1973.The writers believe that much more work is needed to clarify the various aspects of ringworm among the Australian Aborigines.

    TINEA CAPITIS IN ABORIGINAL CHILDREN AT MANINGRIDA, NORTHERN TERRITORY, AUSTRALIA (1977)

    Notes: A high incidence od endemic tinea capitis was found among children at the Aboriginal settlement of Maningrida, Arnhem Land, on the northern coast of Australia some 400 km east of Darwin. The cause was a variant of Microsporum canis which will be referred to as the‘Maningrida’type. It was isolated form 21 (25.3%) brush samples taken form the scalps of 83 Aboriginal Children.There were diffuse, or scattered fine white scaling lesions with minimal hair loss. Clinically these infections could not be distinguished from endothrix tinea capitis caused by Trichophyton tonsurans or Trichophyton violaceum which occur frequently in Aboriginal children in South Australia. No cases of endothrix tinea catitis were found in Aboriginal children in Darwin or in the other settlements which were visited in Arnhem Land.The‘Maningrida’type of M. canis developed as a small spidery colony with a central downy to powdery fuftm which in five to six days produced many typical macroconidia. Young cultures Produced little or no pigment, but later developed a buff or pale brownish pigment.Four cats and two dogs at maningrida were shown to be reservoirs of the variant of M. Canis.No Strains of the typical M. canis with its golden yellow pigment were isolated at maningrida.

    Trichophyton Rubrum Infections in Northern Territory Aborigines (1973)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Australasian journal of dermatology 14 (1973), S. 0

    Notes: Trichophyton rubrum infections are endemic among Aborigines living in the high rainfall areas of the Northern Territory of Australia. Over sixty cases have been verified by laboratory examinations.In this preliminary report a few early observations are mentioned. The clinical, mycological and histological findings to date are described and some comments on epidemiology are made as a forerunner to a subsequent report on this disease in these parts of Australia.In general, the changes seen in the skin due to this infection are similar to those often observed in sub-acute and chronic eczema.So far as we know, T. rubrum infections among Aborigines of the Northern Territory have not been confirmed previously by isolation of the causative fungus.The isolates of T. rubrum concerned are described as granular strains of the species. The colonies become increasingly powdery with age due to the production of numerous microconidia and variable numbers of macroconidia. These findings contrast with the fluffy strains usually isolated from Caucasians in Australia.

    Notes: Abstract The first documented case of phaeohyphomycosis in man caused byExophiala moniliae is reported from South Australia. Study of herbarium specimens, living cultures, and other materials has revealed thatE. moniliae was previously unknown in Australia.

    The routine use of modified Borelli's lactritmel agar (MBLA) (1985)
    Springer
    Mycopathologia 91 (1985), S. 57-59 
    Details

    Notes: Abstract The original formula of Borelli's lactritmel agar (BLA)(3) which contains wheat flour, milk and honey, has been modified by replacing the wheat flour with dehydrated Bacto Corn Meal Agar (Difco) and by slightly altering the concentrations of the milk and honey. The modified medium (MBLA) is less turbid, less particulate, and easier to prepare than BLA. Although Trichophyton rubrum usually produces a wine-red pigment with BLA, most strains initially produce a yellow pigment, with the red pigment developing later. The corn meal in MBLA reduces this tendency and stimulates the early formation of deep wine red pigment. MBLA enhances sporulation of dermatophytes and various fungi which fail to sporulate on other media, and maintains characteristic growth without developing pleomorhic degeneration. It has been used routinely since 1972 as a reliable aid to the differentiation of T. rubrum and T. mentagrophytes. Since 1975 selective MBLA has been used as a routine primary isolation medium for dermatophytes, and has proved to be most useful.
