Detection of sugars and aminoacids in antigens of Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. erinacei.
Crude antigen extracted from mycelium of Trichophyton mentagrophytes var. erinacei by means of phenol and ethylene glycol was studied for sugar and amino acid constituents using DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography for fractionation. The results revealed that the crude antigen contains 13 sugars and 15 amino acids. It is presumed that the antigenicity is based on glycopeptide fractions.
