Fungal skin infections plague active duty servicemembers at elevated rates due to exposure to warm, humid climates, poor skin hygiene, and close-quarters living arrangements.We have developed a novel solution that incorporates a endophytic fungal extract with selective activity against Trichophyton species of pathogens.In addition, the selected compound has negligible impact on the organisms that natural inhabit skin.This approach offers the potential for effective control of fungal skin pathogens while preserving benefits of a healthy skin microbiome, and limiting the development of resistant organisms.In a secondary invention, the compound will be incorporated into common-use textiles for apparel applications and other uses.
