Prevalence of Tinea Versicolor among Dormitory Students by Soheil Taherpouran, Ali Asadi Zeidabadi Asadi Zeidabadi, Arian Alhani, Ensieh Lotfali

“…The Scotch tape method was used to take samples from the infected skin of students, and methylene blue staining was used to prepare smears. Results: After mycological examinations, among the 350 suspected students, 30 cases tested positive for Tinea versicolor, including 17 males and 13 females. 43.3% (n: 13) of patients had hypopigmentation followed by hyperpigmentation (33.3%, n:10) and erythematous (23.3%, n:7). …”
