Synopsis
This fourth volume of "Current Topics in Medical Mycology", like the preceding three volumes in this series, is intended to summarize current research advances in medical mycology. The topics presented are designed to serve as contemporary reviews, summaries of current progress and future directions and mechanisms to enhance the interdisciplinary use of medically important fungi in understanding pathogenesis, epidemiology, mycotoxins, and taxonomy as well as other areas of basic, applied, and clinical science. The topics explored in this volume include skin kinetics of azole antifungal drugs; killer systems interactions; allylamine antifungal drugs; the treatment of superficial skin infections caused by dermatophytes; fusarium-caused hyalohyphomycosis; the use of molecular technique for epidemiologic typing of Candida species; the infection of human skin and nail by Scytalidium species; and a molecular approach to the toxic of quinone mycotoxins. Teaching medical mycology in Latin America and the need for a mycoses-reporting system also are discussed.
