Título original Analýza výskytu mykotických infekcií kože pracovníkov v bani [en eslovaco]
Información bibliográfica Mar. 1975, Vol.63, No.3, p.280-287. 13 ref.
Resumen The results of examinations carried out in 680 lignite miners showed that 52.2% of those examined suffered from intertriginous epidermophytosis, principally caused by Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. interdigitale. Cases of onychomycosis and moniliasis were rare. Shower-rooms were the main source of infection. Recommended preventive measures: washing floor tiles of shower and changing rooms with boiling water after each shift, and disinfection at least once a day with an antimycotic agent; periodic disinfection inside footwear and drying after each shift; application of antimycotic preparations between the toes after showering.
