Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is widely used to discriminate among pathogenic microorganisms in clinical laboratories. The aim of this study was to assess the utility of MALDI-TOF MS in the routine identification of clinical dermatophyte isolates obtained from various geographical regions of Iran.
