The prevalence of Gram-negative bacilli on the toewebs was 8% in normal students, 24% in hospital outpatients with suspected Tinea pedis, 41% in industrial workers wearing protective clothing and 58% in coal miners. Prevalence was greatest in those exposed to wet working conditions. In miners, the presence of Gram-negative bacilli was related to symptoms of itching/soreness and cracking/fissuring, and was negatively related to malodour, but this latter trend was reversed in outpatients and in industrial workers. The feet are a source of many 'enteric' and 'environmental' bacilli and could contribute to infection elsewhere than in the toewebs themselves.
