Clinical Information

  • This mold loves moist areas and attacks a wide variety of body systems. Because of its special love for moisture and heat, the lungs are very vulnerable to this mold. It has also been linked to a wide range of skin infections. If it gets into the blood stream the toxins of Scopulariopsis will settle in bones, which will require long and painful therapy.
