Patterns of culture positivity and antifungal sensitivity in dermatophytosis

MGM Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background: Antifungal drug resistance and a lack of clinical response in 20% of cases of dermatophytosis calls for an evaluation of resistant dermatophytes using a standardized simple and reproducible in vitro assay, to allow clinician to select the ...

Issues in antifungal susceptibility testing [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2008
In line with the availability of an increasing array of systemic antifungal agents, there is a need for accurate, reproducible and predictive susceptibility testing of fungal isolates in order to help inform clinical choice. Much early attention on antifungal susceptibility testing focused on defining test parameters that produced reproducible and ...

New approaches for antifungal susceptibility testing [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2017
Invasive fungal diseases, including those caused by (multi)drug-resistant Candida and Aspergillus species, still represent global public health concerns. Information about the antifungal susceptibility testing (AFST) of fungal isolates must be quickly produced to help clinicians in administrating appropriate antifungal therapies.
