Antifungal susceptibility profiles of 1698 yeast reference strains revealing potential emerging human pathogens. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
New molecular identification techniques and the increased number of patients with various immune defects or underlying conditions lead to the emergence and/or the description of novel species of human and animal fungal opportunistic pathogens. Antifungal

Species distribution and in vitro antifungal susceptibility of oral yeast isolates from Tanzanian HIV-infected patients with primary and recurrent oropharyngeal candidiasis [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2008
Background In Tanzania, little is known on the species distribution and antifungal susceptibility profiles of yeast isolates from HIV-infected patients with primary and recurrent oropharyngeal candidiasis. Methods A total of 296 clinical oral yeasts were

A Practical Guide to Antifungal Susceptibility Testing [PDF]

Journal of the Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society, 2023
We review antifungal susceptibility testing and the development of clinical breakpoints, and detail an approach to using antifungal susceptibility results when breakpoints have not been defined. This information may prove helpful when selecting therapy for invasive fungal infections in children.

Standardization of antifungal susceptibility testing [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1996
The application of in-vitro antifungal susceptibility testing to clinical research and to the guidance of antifungal therapy has been limited by a lack of reproducibility and uncertain clinical relevance. As a result of studies of the identified variables impacting on in-vitro susceptibility results, the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory ...

Autophagy Alters the Susceptibility of Candida albicans Biofilms to Antifungal Agents

Microorganisms, 2023
Candida albicans (C. albicans) reigns as a major cause of clinical candidiasis. C. albicans biofilms are known to increase resistance to antifungal agents, making biofilm-related infections particularly challenging to treat.
