Dermatophytoses are a widespread problem worldwide. Textiles in contact with infected skin can serve as a carrier for fungus propagation. Hitherto, it is unknown, whether antifungal textiles could contribute in controlling dermatophytes e.g. by disrupting the chain of infection.

In the developed countries infections of the feet (tinea pedis, athlete’s foot) and nails (onychomycosis) with the anthropophile fungus Trichophyton rubrum are most common. We examined the propagation of dermatophytes before and during domestic laundering. About 10% of the infectious material was transferred from contaminated textiles to sterile textiles during storage in a clothes basket simulation...
Factor F 430 is a nickel-containing coenzyme of methanogenic bacteria with porphinoid structure which is derived from uroporphyrinogen III. It is shown that sirohydrochlorin is metabolized by cell free extracts of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum to factor F 430 demonstrating that this compound, or a reduced form of it, is an intermediate in the biosynthesis...
