All of the subjects studied harbored M. furfur at every site tested, and had high counts on the head region and upper trunk. The strains isolated could be divided on the basis of culture characteristics into three distinct groups. Only 12% of the subjects carried M. pachydermatis with very low counts at sites on the head and palm. 2018-08-10T08:58:19Z 2018-08-10T08:58:19Z 1993-06-01 Article The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health.
