GlossaryFungal Culture (mycological culture)

laboratory test to grow and identify fungi from samples

A fungal culture, also known as a mycological culture, is a laboratory test used to grow and identify fungi from a sample, such as skin, hair, or nails. This test helps diagnose fungal infections by allowing the fungi to grow in a controlled environment, making it easier to identify the specific type of fungus causing the infection.
