Abstract
Freezing at −80°C, lyophilization, preservation in distilled water, and storage in different culture media were performed in order to find a suitable method that allowed a prolonged storage ofMalasseziaspp. Freezing at −80°C was the only method successful at maintaining all species.Keywords
