title: Isolation and identification of the principal siderophore of the dermatophyte Microsporum gypseum.
abstract: The dermatophyte Microsporum gypseum has been shown to produce two siderophores under conditions of low-iron stress. These compounds have been separated as Fe(III) complexes on silica gel, and the principal siderophore has been identified as ferricrocin using the methods of amino acid analysis, comparative thin-layer chromatography, partial sequencing by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, ultraviolet spectroscopy, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the Al(III) complex.
