Five strains of Sporothrix schenckii preserved in sterile distilled water were found morphologically stable, viable and pure after a period ranging from 16 to 13 years, in the mycology section culture collection from the Instituto de Medicina Tropical, Universidad Central de Venezuela. Each strain was inoculated into the testes of 3 hamsters. All the animals developed disseminated sporotrichosis.
