| This study included 150 swabs were taken from patients was suffering from different burns. The most common fungi isolated from burn wound were Aspergillus spp. (44.0%) at 37o and (38.17%) at 25o which include Aspergillus niger (9.31%) at 37o and (12.42%) at 25o , Aspergillus fumigatus (4.34%) at 37o and (10.55%) at 25o and Aspergillus flavus (0%) at 37o and (9.93%) at 25o , followed by Candida spp. (7.45%) at 37o and (7.45%) at 25o, Which includes Blastomyces dermatitidis (0.62%) at 37o and (0.62%) at 25o, Helminthosporum (0%) at 37o and (0.62%) at 25o, Trichophyton terrestre (0%) at 37o and (0.62%) at 25o and Microsporum ajelloi (0%) at 37o and (0.62%) at 25o.The results of minimal inhibitory concentration of anti fungal agents against Candida albicans , Candida glabrata , Candida krusei and Candida parapsilosis, Penicillium (1.66%) at 37o and (9.31%) at 25o, Alternaria (1.24%) at 37o and (3.72%) at 25o, Rhizopus (1.24%) at 37o and (2.48%) at 25o, Fusarium (1.24%) at 37o and (1.24%) at 25o, Mucor (0.62%) at 37o and (1.86%) at 25o, Cladosporium Carnoni (0%) at 37o and (1.86%) at 25o, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (0.92%) at 37o and (1.24%) at 25o, Trichophyton rubrum (0%) at 37o and (1.24%) at 25o, Trichophyton verrucosum (0.62%) at 37o and (0.62%) at 25o, Candida albicans increasing in order as 50 /ml to Nystatin, 150 /ml to Gention violet, 250 /ml to Amphotericin–B, 300 /ml to Clotrimazol, 950 /ml to Benzoic acid and the later 1000 /ml to copper Sulfate and Malachite green. | ||
