We introduce a new membrane‐active antifungal design, Gua‐SMACS‐16, that exhibits high potency and single‐species selectivity for C. tropicalis while sparing other close species in the Candida genus. Moreover, when combining with caspofungin, a clinical antifungal drug inhibiting 1,3‐β‐glucan synthase, they exhibit ultra‐strong synergy across a panel ...

How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

Comparative evaluation of antifungal susceptibility testing methods for Rhizopus species isolates [PDF]
Background and Purpose:The mainstay of treatment for COVID-19-associated mucormycosis was liposomal Amphotericin B. Other antifungal agents such as posaconazole and isavuconazole were also used. CLSI M38 A3 and EUCAST recommend broth microdilution method

A disc test of antifungal susceptibility [PDF]
Diagnostic laboratories are frequently requested to perform antifungal susceptibility tests on isolates recovered from systemic infections. A standard reference procedure of broth dilution was proposed by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), but it is too labour-intensive for most clinical laboratories.
