Abstract
ABSTRACT
Tests of the survival of
Candida
spp.,
Aspergillus
spp., a
Fusarium
sp.
,
a
Mucor
sp.
,
and a
Paecilomyces
sp. on hospital fabrics and plastics indicated that viability was variable, with most fungi surviving at least 1 day but many living for weeks. These findings reinforce the need for appropriate disinfection and conscientious contact control precautions.
