Abstract

The dermatophytic fungi Trichophyton spp and Microsporum spp secrete ferrichrome type siderophores under low iron conditions. Three different species of Microsporum, i.e. M. qypseum, M. canis and M. audouinii, as well as T. rubrum produce ferrichrome C and ferricrocin, whereas T. mentagrophytes and T. tonsurans produce only ferrichrome. The identification of the siderophores was established by means of thin layer chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy.
