A Review On Chemical And Molecular Characterization of Keratinophilic Fungi
Aziz Mohammad Khan, Seema Bhadauria
Abstract :
Keratinophilic fungi is a group of fungi which can degrade keratinous materials and cause mycoses in both humans and animals. For identification keratinophilic fungi are isolated from soil using hair baiting technique. Keratinophilic fungi can be identified by chemical or molecular methods. In chemical identification keratinophilic fungi are identified by degradation of keratinous materials, screening of dyes and production of keratinase or amylase. Nucleic acid amplification or PCR based procedure such as RFLP, RAPD and AFLP require the use of specific primer and restriction enzyme. Specific primer sequence is designed and annealed for identification of keratinophilic fungi. MALDITOF-MS is reported as the rapid and revolutionary technique that candetect highly abundant proteins in a mass range between 2 and 20 kDa. These identification techniques more specific and less time consuming than morphological identification.c
