Abstract

Scanning electron microscopy with high resolution and great depth of focus has been known to be able to show the fine features of surface ornamentation of fungi, and with this technique we could obtain the interesting results about the surface structures of the selected fungi,Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae andCandida utilis.
