Bu çalışmanın amacı Erzurum ilindeki bazı kuaför ve hamamlarda fungal kontaminasyonu araştırmaktır. Çalışma için kuaförlerde kullanılan çeşitli materyallerden (n:407) ve hamamların çeşitli alanlarından (n:435) sürüntü örnekleri toplandı. Örnekler mantar için uygun besiyerlerine ekildi ve daha sonra izole edilen mantarlar identifikasyona tabi tutuldu. Kuaför örneklerinin 107 (%26.28)'sinde, hamam örneklerinin ise 238 (%54.71)'inde fungal üreme tespit edildi. En fazla fungal üreme kuaförlerde kullanılan saç fırçaları ve tırnak törpülerinde saptandı. Hamamlardan alınan örneklerde fungal üreme en fazla soyunma odası zemininde ve terliklerde tespit edildi. Kuaför örneklerinde en fazla izole edilen fungal cins Aspergillus sp. iken, hamam örneklerinde en fazla izole edilen fungal cins Candida sp. oldu. Çalışmamızın sonuçları, bu ortamların genel olarak fungal enfeksiyonlar açısından riskli olmasına rağmen kontaminasyon oranlarının önceki çalışmalara göre daha düşük olduğunu göstermektedir.

The purpose of this study is to investigate fungal contamination in some hairdressers and Turkish baths in Erzurum/Türkiye. For the study, swab samples were collected from various materials used in hairdressers (n:407) and multiple areas of Turkish baths (n:435). The specimens were inoculated into suitable media for the fungus, and then the isolated fungi were identified. Fungal growth was detected in 107 (26.28%) hairdresser samples and 238 (54.71%) of the Turkish bath samples. Hairbrushes used in hairdressers and nail files were the materials with which fungi were most isolated. It was determined that the most fungal growth in the samples taken from Turkish baths was on the floor of the dressing rooms and slippers. While Aspergillus sp was the most isolated fungus genus in the hairdresser samples, Candida sp. was the most isolated fungus genus in the Turkish bath samples. The results of our study demonstrate that although these environments are generally risky in terms of fungal infections, the contamination rates were lower compared to previous studies.
