Abstract

Coccidioides immitis appears to be unable to digest particulate collagen when cultured on collagen-containing semisolid culture media. However, all C. immitis strains solubilized collagen when the fungus was grown in liquid suspension cultures. Moreover, sterile culture filtrates were collagenolytic in collagen-buffer-agar plate assays.
