Description
|
The genus Aspergillus includes over 185 species. Around 20 species have been reported ascausative agents of opportunistic infections in humans. Among these, Aspergillusfumigatus is the most commonly isolated species, followed by Aspergillus flavus. Aspergillus fumigatus is the major cause of aspergillosis. This organism causes bothinvasive and allergic aspergillosis. Aspergillus also produce fungal toxins called mycotoxins. Aflatoxin is produced byAspergillus flavus as it grows on corn and peanuts. The toxin is poisonous to humans byingestion and causes liver disease. Aspergillus nidulans can produce the mycotoxinsterigmatocystin. This toxin has been shown to produce liver and kidney damage in labanimals. Aspergillus oschraceus,found in grains, soil and salted food products canproduce a kidney toxin called oschratoxin A, which may produce oschratoxicosis inhumans. Ochratoxin may also be produced by other aspergillus and penicillium species. Other toxins that can be produced by this fungus include penicillic acid, xanthomegninand viomellein. Aspergillus infections have a very high mortality rate. Their incidence is growing because ofthe increased number of immunocompromised patients. Previous to antibodies such asthese, special stains were used to identify aspergillus.
