Phase-Dependent Differential In Vitro and Ex Vivo Susceptibility of Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium keratoplasticum to Azole Antifungals

Journal of Fungi, 2023
Fungal keratitis (FK) is an invasive infection of the cornea primarily associated with Aspergillus and Fusarium species. FK is treated empirically with a limited selection of topical antifungals with varying levels of success.

Susceptibility Testing of Fungi to Antifungal Drugs [PDF]

Journal of Fungi, 2018
Susceptibility testing of fungi against antifungal drugs commonly used for therapy is a key component of the care of patients with invasive fungal infections. Antifungal susceptibility testing (AFST) has progressed in recent decades to finally become standardized and available as both Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) and European ...

Candida Glabrata Fungaemia in a Tertiary Centre in Taiwan: Antifungal Susceptibility and Outcomes [PDF]

, 2011
The proportion of non-albicans candidaemia has increased during recent decades, especially Candida glabrata. We evaluated the antifungal susceptibility, clinical features and outcome of C. glabrata fungaemia treated in a tertiary centre in Taiwan.

Antifungal Susceptibilities ofCryptococcus neoformans

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Resumen Los perfiles de susceptibilidad de los hongos de importancia médica en los países menos desarrollados siguen sin caracterizarse. Medimos las CMI de anfotericina B, 5-flucitosina, fluconazol, itraconazol y ketoconazol para aislados clínicos de Cryptococcus neoformans de Tailandia, Malawi y los Estados Unidos y no encontramos evidencia de ...

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 ...
