Section though unfixed brain showing large pale area of infarction deep in the parietal cortex, in which Aspergillus hyphae were seen histologically. The patient developed disseminated aspergillosis after a prolonged stay in intensive care after contracting severe community acquired pneumonia.
Sclerotial strains produce bright yellow, floccose mycelia. Sclerotial strains produce small numbers of large, fused sclerotial bodies in discrete pockets hidden within the mycelium.
Aspergillus alliaceus. No branching was observed in A. alliaceus conidiophores. Sclerotial strains typically produce large numbers of exposed, uniformly-shaped sclerotia across the mycelial surface.
Aspergillus alliaceus – Sclerotial. A. alliaceus strains produce flat, pale mycelia that darken as the culture ages.Sclerotial strains typically produce large numbers of exposed, uniformly-shaped sclerotia across the mycelial surface.
