The role of contaminated clothes as a possible source of reinfection is not fully understood. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of domestic laundering at different temperatures in the eradication of fungal pathogens from contaminated socks. Samples from 81 socks worn by patients suffering from tinea pedis underwent domestic laundering at either 40\u00a0\u00b0C or 60\u00a0\u00b0C. The socks were dried at room temperature; fungal cultures were taken from two samples from, respectively, the toe and heel areas of the socks. Samples from socks washed at 40\u00a0\u00b0C revealed 29 (36%) positive fungal cultures, of which 14 came from the toe and 15 from the heel areas of socks. <jats:italic>Trichophyton rubrum<\/jats:italic> was isolated in four specimens, and <jats:italic>Aspergillus<\/jats:italic> spp. were found in 20 (70%) specimens. Samples from the same socks washed at 60\u00a0\u00b0C revealed five (6%) positive fungal cultures, of which three came from the toe and two from the heel areas of socks. Only <jats:italic>Aspergillus<\/jats:italic> spp. were detected. Yeasts were eradicated at 40\u00a0\u00b0C. Contravening current trends for energy saving and environmental protection, laundering at low temperatures is not effective in eradicating fungal pathogens, which requires high\u2010temperature laundering at 60\u00a0\u00b0C.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ijd.12167","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,24]],"date-time":"2013-07-24T19:00:42Z","timestamp":1374692442000},"page":"1392-1394","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["The effect of domestic laundry processes on fungal contamination of socks"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"52","author":[{"given":"Boaz","family":"Amichai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Meir Medical Center Kfar\u2010Saba Israel"},{"name":"Sackler Faculty of Medicine Tel\u2010Aviv University Tel\u2010Aviv Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcelo H.","family":"Grunwald","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Soroka University Medical Center Ben\u2010Gurion University Beer\u2010Sheva Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Batya","family":"Davidovici","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sackler Faculty of Medicine Tel\u2010Aviv University Tel\u2010Aviv Israel"},{"name":"Department of Dermatology Belinson Medical Center Petah\u2010Tikva Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Renata","family":"Farhi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Tecnico Educacional (Foundation for Technical Education) Souza Marques University Rio de Janeiro Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Avner","family":"Shemer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sackler Faculty of Medicine Tel\u2010Aviv University Tel\u2010Aviv Israel"},{"name":"Department of Dermatology Sheba Medical Center Tel\u2010Hashomer Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00152689"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1439-0507.2007.01372.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1439-0507.2011.02121.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","first-page":"97","volume-title":"Diseases of the Nails and Their Management","author":"Hay RJ","year":"1994"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s001050050600"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11046-010-9347-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijfoodmicro.2011.08.022"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2133.2008.08549.x"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fijd.12167","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/ijd.12167","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,2]],"date-time":"2023-10-02T23:23:58Z","timestamp":1696289038000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/ijd.12167"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,24]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"11","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2013,11]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/ijd.12167"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/ijd.12167","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0011-9059","1365-4632"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0011-9059","type":"print"},{"value":"1365-4632","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,24]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2013-07-24","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
