They are easy enough to tear down, but the later MD lenses have sealed element groups, rather than individual ring screws for each element, like the older MC lenses.
This means that often, if the fungus is inside an element group, you can't actually separate the elements to clean the fungus.
The earlier MD 28mm can be stripped down to each element, and it looks like your later MD 28mm does not have sealed element groups. So you have a better chance of cleaning this.
The MD 50mm is almost certain to have sealed element groups, so you can hope that the fungus is not inside these. Once you remove front and back, the element groups are generally held in place by three screws.
