Fluorescent Staining Using Blankophor for the Diagnosis of Sporotrichosis on Fresh Biopsies
Sporotrichosis is an implantation mycosis with a high incidence in Brazil. Diagnosing human sporotrichosis poses significant challenges, which can lead to increased morbidity and prolonged treatment duration. Direct examination of fresh biopsies using Blankophor represents a valuable tool for rapid diagnosis, offering high sensitivity.
