Abstract
Dermatophytosis can be caused on by the invasion and infection of keratinized tissues in people and animals via a group of filamentous fungus known as dermatophytes. About a quarter of the world’s population is affected by it which is one of the most prevalent superficial fungal diseases. Some of these fungi have the capacity to develop complex 3-D biofilm structures, or “biofilm,” which are distinguished by the creation of extracellular polymeric molecules and a heightened drug resistance. The assessment of biofilm now relies on a variety of different methods, which frequently results in various evaluations of the microbial strains’ capacity to create biofilms. It has only recently been discovered the architecture and growth features of dermatophytic biofilms (Trichophyton spp., Microsporum spp.). Additionally, the structural complexity and lack of research on filamentous fungal biofilms make therapy challenging. Therefore, there is a demand for newer antifungals or methods for treating resistant dermatophytosis to offer an efficient, original, and safe substitute to current treatments. Therefore, this review highlighted on the significance, characterization and evaluation of biofilm that produced from dermatophytes.
