A widespread epizootic due to a granular variety of Trichophyton mentagrophytes occurred in a new stock of laboratory guinea pigs imported to Perth from one of the Eastern States of Australia. The infection spread quickly among these animals, and infection occurred in rabbits and mice at the breeding station and in 4 people. The human infections were contracted either directly through handling animals or indirectly by means of fomites. The strain of T. mentagrophytes causing the epizootic was distinctive from strains previously isolated in Western Australia.
一批从澳大利亚东部某州进口到珀斯的实验用豚鼠新种群中,爆发了由一种颗粒状须发癣菌引起的广泛 epizootic。感染在这些动物中迅速传播,并在繁殖场的兔子和小鼠以及4人中发生。人类感染是通过直接接触动物或间接通过污染物感染的。引起 epizootic 的须发癣菌菌株与先前在西澳大利亚分离出的菌株不同。
