We examined the dust collected from the floors of forty classrooms, twenty in kindergarten schools (children aged 2-5) and twenty in secondary schools (students aged 11-14) in order to determine the diffusion of keratinophilic fungi in respect to such different factors as human presence and children's age. In the kindergarten schools 268 colonies of keratinophilic fungi were isolated: 50 were Microsporum, 6 Trichophyton and 212 Chrysosporium species. Members of the Chrysosporium genus were found the widely diffused. It is interesting to note the isolation of M. gypseum in two schools. In the secondary schools 847 colonies of keratinophilic fungi were isolated: 727 were Chrysosporium, 81 Microsporum, 38 Trichophyton and 1 Epidermophyton species. Again the Chrysosporium species were the most widely diffused. It is remarkable to point out the isolation of pathogenic species such as Epidermophyton floccosum, Microsporum canis, Microsporum gypseum and the rather rare Microsporum vanbreuseghemii.
我们检查了从40间教室地面收集的灰尘，其中20间来自幼儿园（2至5岁儿童），20间来自中学（11至14岁学生），目的是确定嗜角质真菌在人类存在和儿童年龄等不同因素方面的扩散情况。在幼儿园中，分离出268个嗜角质真菌菌落：50个是小孢子菌，6个是毛癣菌，212个是金孢子菌属物种。发现金孢子菌属成员分布广泛。值得注意的是，在两所学校中分离出了石膏样小孢子菌。在中学中，分离出847个嗜角质真菌菌落：727个是金孢子菌，81个是小孢子菌，38个是毛癣菌，1个是表皮癣菌属物种。同样，金孢子菌属物种分布最广。值得指出的是，分离出了致病性物种，如絮状表皮癣菌、犬小孢子菌、石膏样小孢子菌以及相当罕见的范布累斯格姆小孢子菌。
