- Description: Aspergillus fumigatus is a fungus of the genus Aspergillus. Specifically, A. fumigatus, it is a mold andione of the most common Aspergillus species to cause disease in humans with an immunodeficiency. A. fumigatus, is a widespread saprobe which breaks down organic material in soil and the conidia are prevalent in the atmosphere and regularly inhaled. In healthy individuals, A. fumigatus can cause allergic reactions and infection. However, in immunocompromised individuals it can cause invasive aspergillosis which is often fatal disease.
