Abstract
We examined fast atom bombardment mass spectra (FAB-MS) of 29 clinical isolates of Aspergillus, from five pathogenic species, for the presence of phthioic acid anions (m/z 395.6) when grown at 37 degrees C. Phthioic acid was detected in only one of 12 A. fumigatus, three of nine A. terreus and one of four A. niger isolates. Phthioic acid is unlikely to be a major pathogenicity determinant of Aspergillus.
