Lesions experimentally produced by fungi implicated in extrinsic allergic alveolitis.
The ability of Aureobasidium pullulans, Cladosporium herbarum and Cryptostroma corticale to produce local lesions in the rabbit was examined. Both C. corticale and A. pullulans can survive in vivo and produce the inflammatory response typical of mycetoma. C. herbarum failed to grow or survive in vivo.
