The course of the destruction of human hair in vitro by three species of the genus Aphanoascus (A. keratinophilus, A. fulvescens and A. verrucosus) was studied with light microscopy, and transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The results obtained show that all the three species develop keratinolytic activity. A. fulvescens and A. verrucosus have similar sequences of degradation, invading the hair through the cuticula, but without the presence of specialized erosive organs. A. keratinophilus, however, shows a different way of invasion, and the keratinolytic activity was mainly located in the cortex and from that point on expanded to the cuticula.
利用光学显微镜、透射电子显微镜和扫描电子显微镜研究了三种隐球菌属（嗜角蛋白隐球菌、微黄隐球菌和疣状隐球菌）在体外对人发的破坏过程。所得结果表明，这三种菌均具有角蛋白分解活性。微黄隐球菌和疣状隐球菌具有相似的降解过程，通过角质层侵入毛发，但不存在专门的侵蚀器官。然而，嗜角蛋白隐球菌表现出不同的侵入方式，其角蛋白分解活性主要位于皮质，并从该部位扩展到角质层。
