Mycological tests

Smear examination is ordered in diagnostic procedures for suspected fungal, especiallyóreactive yeast-like fungi, in order to differentiate them from those of others, by bacteria or viruses.

Testing a prób taken from the resulting lesion for dermatophytesóll help identify the cause of ringworm.

Nematodes are microscopic arthropods that reside in the sebaceous glands and hair follicles of the eyelashes and abdomen. The test is performed to rule out or confirm nematodes as the etiologic agent of infection.
