The details of the fungi used in this study, and the results of ScedLFD and ScedELISA tests using culture filtrates from fungi grown as shake cultures for 72 h in YNB+G medium. 1 CBS; Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, The Netherlands. CRT; C. R. Thornton, University of Exeter, UK. RMRL; Regional Mycology Reference Laboratory, University Hospital, South Manchester, England, UK. FGSC; 2 For ScedLFD tests, the test (T) line Cube readings in artificial units (a.u.) are the means of two replicate values. The threshold T line value for LFD test positivity is ≥60 a.u. (2 × a.u. value for the YNB+G-only negative control). All LFD tests had control (C) line values of ≥600 a.u. 3 For ELISA tests, the absorbance values are the means of two replicate values, and the threshold absorbance value for test positivity is ≥0.100 (2 × absorbance value for the YNB+G-only negative control).
