Mycosis (mycotic disease) |
fungal pathogens in humans - opportunisitc and virulent |
|
True (primary) fungal pathogen |
invades and grows in health (uncompormised) animal host - existed through evolutionary variant allowing fungi to grow in high temperature/low oxygen environment |
|
thermal dimorphism |
hyphal cells turn to yeast cells to allow them to grown in the new (high temp/low oxygen) environment |
|

|
|
subcutaneous mycoces |
enter through traumatized skin only exist just below skin cannot survive in high temp/low O2 of skin |
|
Sporotrichosis |
live in warm and temperate environments can't withstand heat - heat packs on lesions can resolve infections G.R.O.S.S.! |
