Wood’s Light Examination
“Filtered ultraviolet (Wood’s) light elicits a green fluorescence from some dermatophyte fungi, mainly Microsporum species, in hair infections. Exposure to Wood’s light is a useful screening procedure for taking specimens from Microsporum infections. Equally it is unhelpful in many of the anthropophilic infections seen in the UK as they do not fluoresce.”
