Magnified 562X this photomicrograph, stained using a fluorescent antibody (FA) staining technique (NOT stained using a Candida conjugate) revealed the presence of Aspergillus sp. organisms, in a case of aspergillosis.What is Aspergillus?Aspergillus is a fungus (or mold) that is very common in the environment. It is found in soil, on plants and in decaying plant matter. It is also found in household dust, building materials, and even in spices and some food items. There are lots of different types of Aspergillus, but the most common ones are Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus. Some others are Aspergillus terreus, Aspergillus nidulans, and Aspergillus niger.Created: 1972
